After a busy morning of baseball field maintenance and watching work progress on our addition, I announced to the guys, "I'm having silver withdrawal so I'm going across the street." I've been doing a neighbor's yard, and silver pops out most days. Sure enough, second signal (after an initial Memorial penny) was this 1950D Rosey. I noticed a lumber truck pull up, so I hustled across the street to help unload. I left instructions with Miss halfdime to find some good signals and mark them with a stick. After about an hour of lumber movement, I returned to find little sticks sticking out of the ground. Gotta love her diligence! One of the sticks marked a deep "iffy" signal, and I thought it might be an Indian. Sure enough, it was, and on closer inspection it turned out to be this 1873. I'm trying to fill Indian albums for both kids and I might have one of those, but I know I don't have two. At least one hole gets filled . A little while later, an 1882 Indian arrived; I'll have to check on that one. Two strong signals near the end of our time yielded (first) this Derringer and then a pair of locks in eternal embrace! Not the half dollar signal the XLT indicated, but a worthy find nonetheless. Not bad for a few minutes break from my busy workday .
