I think we all at least hope, that a new permission will be the one!
That one that ends our quest, that we can stay there and find forever more. :dontknow:

Short attempt on a messy day at my new one.

Must've been some shooting going on here.

I asked if I could just have one more coin as an exit
find. Just so I'd feel better.

This was it! It came out so dark I wasn't sure what it was at first.

1917! Missed it.........by that much! ;)

Don't get me wrong, I've got lots of ground to cover yet, just wasn't that
big hunt today. This place has potential!

Thanks for peeking!

Looks like the silver is starting to flow...
 

Awesome! Silver! And there is more ground to cover!

Where the heck is Blingie off to? And what is Fishy checking out?

You got a musket ball? Whoa!

( here today they are firing lead! Unreal!)
 

Nice digs Whadi. I have hit some sites expecting old coins that never materialized, yet on other sites I expected clad and came up with some oldies or silvers. Good luck with the new site. I see more keepers in your future.
 

1917 merc, not too shabby, love those old mercs, nice!
 

Congrats on the new permission. It is enjoyable to swinging over new ground. That 16-D is out there somewhere, wish I knew where. Nice catch on the 17. Still gotta like them early dates.
 

congrats on the finds ! the sugar plums are dancing in my head for sat got 2 old home sites to check out man I hope they are the ones!
 

Congrats on the Merc. I'd be thrilled with digging a Merc....heck even a Rosie would be welcomed at this point
 

Whadi,
Freddie approves of your Mercury!

Congrats on a productive hunt! Sub 8-)
 

It's always disappointing to work for a new permission just to find its not quite what you imagined. But Subterranean has it right....

I really didn't recognize it at first. Had to really look hard! I figure it was one that was just in circulation a long, long time and dropped much more recently. Strange how dark it is though.

Only a guess, But I think Traffic causes that.
I think it was lost in a spot ,where it was Run over by Bikes, Cars , Feet for awhile.

Water can cause Black Tarnish also, But the Wear makes be think Traffic.
Normally when I see silver in that condition it is in Very Hard ground.

It fits, my research showed either a road or a farm path in the field. Plenty rocky too.
This thing was almost on top!

I said the same thing when the round ball, (it is lead), came out. Seemed funny though, somehow.

And I'm sorry, I didn't see your question about Fishy's toy until now. It's either a silver colored
.22 shell or the Lone Ranger started out with a .22. ;)

Thanks!
 

It's ok. I have issues with the e-net anyhow. My phone pics are not as clear, & I think I need glasses upgrade...I'm now having to use a magnifing glass "while I am wearing my reading glasses...it sucks getting old!
