The Littlest Silver Ever

[Carolina Tom]

I managed to slip out a little over the past weekend. I hunted with TNetter Todd Lipe at several different spots. Unfortunately, I was unable to find any silver coins... however I was able to scratch up a couple of things.

- A couple of marbles.
- Thin Dime play money.
- Smashed thimble.
- Sterling St. Christopher
- FHA sterling pin part. Tylerbdad was able to ID it and provided the pic. He is a real "nice guy"!
- Old lead bullet.
- Seven wheat cents (Including: 1917 & 1919).

The FHA pin was the best find in my opinion. It is extremely small. If you don't know what FHA is, just goggle it. It was an organization that helped high school girls prepare to be "house wives". In an effort to stay out of trouble, I will refrain from saying anything further.

Thanks for looking, and best of luck to you on your hunts!

Thanks for the silver Mojo this past weekend Tom, as a matter of fact 2 of the silvers I dug this past weekend had that sticky silver coating you mentioned on a previous post. i never dug coins with the grey stuff on until this past weekend. Nice to see you got out and pulled some keepers. I remember the FHA from my highschool days, not that I was a member, but there were a few members that I had the hots for.

[Old Dude]

Nice finds Tom, but I can't believe you listened to TBD Everyone knows FHA stands for Future Ho's of America

 

[DirtStalker]

Nice digs CT. And I'm NOT a nice guy. You usually call me ODB. And why does my application to the CSM keep coming back Return to Sender? OD I had several answers like that too

Big congrats on the tiny silver!

That is small, that's why I need a PPointer.
Without reading what you said I would have guessed "federal housing authority" esp. with the "A" making a roof, and all.

Good hunt Tom.

The FHA pin was the best find in my opinion.

Did the pin sound tiny or did it give a good loud sound? From my experience with the Deus I believe it would have given a good loud sound, irrespective of the size of the item.
