Year end pictures my 2006 start

[gold fish]

Well, I started MDing at the end of Sept. this year. My first find ever was the half-dime, and I ended up this last week with the barber dime and the 1940 quarter. Considering it was the first month and a half of my newfound love/hobby, I think I did pretty good.

Great finds for such a short time..... I have come to the conclusion that the American people throw money and jewlery away.... Here in South Africa, you really have to look for the stuff. I have found less than a quarter of the coins you have, and have been at it for around a year. Jewelery = NIL.... Good going, keep it up.


God bless

I may really be onto something then, I have yet to really hit any area "hard". I only had a month and a half of good weather, so I did a lot of scouting type searches. The half-dime barber and 1941 slq all came from the same stretch of woods.

GF,

You really did a fantastic job. Awesome finds for such a short period of time.

Great job on those finds... especially the Barber and the seated.

Just for future reference though, "slq" is generally used to refer to a "standing liberty quarter", not a silver Washington.
