Took the wife (and my Whites) to Tucson for a visit at her daughters. Old '50's era house, once post housing for the air base there but turned over to the civilian market in the 60's. Detected the front yard, found a bunch of wheaties, this dime (34?) and, wonder of wonders, this 1960 Franklin. My 1st silver half. Well, I think my first half ever. Those old South Tucson houses gotta be a gold mine......there's hundreds of them and the locals are not the metal detecting kind, if ya catch my drift. HH:laughing7:
Oh, yeah, that nickel? 1941

Congrats on the BIG SILVER! Awesome feeling, huh? I got a Walker last Thursday, it just makes you gasp when you see that giant silver disc. GL&HH!

Great silvers, that half is great!

Yeah , well good you had a family hookup because I do get your drift, and those "South Tucson " neighborhoods are a little heavy
on the "hoods" and light on the neighbors- if you know what I mean ! -( not gonna go knocking on too many doors over there )
