When was that last two silver day?

Finally got a chance to get out and do a little detecting today; baseball and school have limited my opportunities to hunt, but the kids are out and we're moving into tournaments. This morning, the kids attended a local VBS, giving me a few hours to myself. "What to do with that time?" I asked. "What else?" I answered. One of my cousins has property that once had an old house on it; I've detected there before, pulling 20th century silver, a few wheats and an Indian head penny. I was determined to find the location of the old privy, too, since I've added that to my repertoire since I last detected this site. I found a couple of likely spots for that, and I'll start digging in the near future. Meanwhile, with the detector, I started off with some modern coinage: a quarter and dime in the first two holes. Under an old magnolia, I finally got the tell-tale 82-83 of a silver Rosey; out came this 1956. A little while later, under the same tree, this 45P war nickel appeared. Yes, I count war nickels as silvers; this was my first two silver day since last September 14. It may have even been my first silver since . A nice pocket knife and a smashed crotal bell rounded out the finds for this morning. VBS runs all week, so I'll be back out there again.

Congratulations...Silver is nice but multiple Silver is better. I recently had a 4 silver day which is very good for me since I do rather short hunts.
