1918-S & 1936 Merc dimes ~ 1960-D Rosie ~ 12 wheats ~ silver ring

Hello!

WOW ~ today was a long day of detecting! First, our club's monthly outing was today frm 9:am to noon in Springfield. I did pretty good ~ I took first place in the points standing! Then, after the club hunt, Ron and I took a drive around to find some other places to detect. Here's what I dug today:

1918-S Mercury dime
1936 Mercury dime
1960-D Roosevelt dime
12 wheat cents dating from 1927 to 1958
9 clad quarters
24 clad dimes
10 modern nickels
55 copper memorial cents
24 zinc cents
small silver ring
'Canada' lapel pin

I took pic's of the silver before and after I cleaned 'em up. These 3 dimes are my silver coin finds #60, #61, and #62 for the year!

Thanks for looking!
Neil

Those are nice Neil.

My buddy is starting to get the hang of your se. Hitting silver and old coins with it now. It is a deep machine. Hard to find silver any where nowadays with any unit. I am stuck on 59. Witch is good by anyone's standard. But I haven't hit a silver all week. Got like 25 wheats and some other odds and ends.

So I know how hard you work to get those silvers consistently. Anything over a 100 would be a good yr. Good luck and take care.
