Hello!

I took off Thursday and Friday from work to go to Portland. My sister, brother-in-law and myself went to see David Cross do his stand-up comedy act at the Newmark Theather on Thursday night ~ that dude is so FUNNY! We had such a great time!

My sister helped me find some areas to go metal detecting on Thursday and Friday ~ and I did pretty good! Here's what I dug:

1901 Indian Head Cent
1945-S Mercury dime
1952-S Roosevelt Dime
1954-S Roosevelt Dime
1960-D Roosevelt Dime
1963-D Roosevelt Dime
1958-W Uncle Sam play dime
34 wheat cents dating from 1919 to 1958
Silver "knot" ring (not marked 925)
10 clad quarters
31 clad dimes
1 modern nickel (only one? Yeah, only one!)
118 memorial cents

These five silver coins brings me up to 67 silver coins for the year!

Thanks for looking!
Neil
