WOOHOO!!! Silver coins #99 & #100 TODAY! YAYER!!!!!

Hello everyone!

Today I did it ~ I hit my goal of 100 silvers for the year! And we're only 7 months into the year! WOOHOO!!!

I went out today for about an hour during my lunch break ~ didn't find a lot . . . . just some clad and a few wheat cents. But after work I hit an area that I hadn't detected for a while now ~ and I'm glad I went back there tonight! I ended up digging a 1945-D Mercury dime and a dateless "D" mint Standing Liberty quarter! I also dug a 1944-S War nickel, 1943 Canadian Cent, a total of 17 wheat cents dating from '37 to '58, and a small heart shaped silver charm.

The silver charm was a nice little supprise . . . . . when I was digging it I thought it was just a zinc cent ~ I was just trying to clean out all the surface targets in hopes of hearing the deeper better targets. This little piece of sterling rang up just like a zinc cent on my eTrac!

It will be interesting to see what my silver count will be on December 31, 2010! My best year so far was 2008 with 104 silver coins. And I was very close to that total in 2009 with 102 silver coins.

Thanks for looking!
Neil

Oddcoin,
Congrats on hitting 100 silvers...in my book you are over 100 since I've seen you post a few war time nickels and they count as silver in my book.

Are you going to try for 200 before years end?

Good luck

Thanks man!

Yeah, some people count them War nickels as silver coins. Just I don't ~ they are only 35% silver. I'll consider it a silver coin as long as it's more than 50% silver ~ that includes foreign coins too.

Not sure if I'm going to re-set my goal at all! I'm just happy I hit my 100 so early in the year! I think I'm just gonna keep at it ~ and just see where I'm at at midnight on Dec. 31, 2010.
