Well since I got rained on yesterday, I went against my belief
of not hitting the same place 2 days straight.
and went back to the 1875 school I just got permission for

place was loaded with people from town working on the new concession building next door :(

some of which used the school yard as a parking space :(

Some well preserved coinage You have here ... Congrat's on the Multi-Silver Day ... :skullflag: I was thinking about hitting that Old School yard I found My 1899 Barber Quarter in the morning , had a few decent signals last time but the ground was still froze solid and My Chainsaw Way of digging threw frozen ground first thing Sunday morning would have been Disrespectful :laughing7:
 

It's been a long time since i have seen you pull that much silver out of one hunt. Sweetness.

Yes I'm usually lucky a one per hunt :laughing7:

Had to look at the medal again.

Maybe a bit of Museum Wax will bring that up nice??
 

Sweet finds Jeff! Token looks like the one I found when we were at Orwin awhile back.

yep ! Sure does :thumbsup:

Thanks !
 

Good thing you were willing to bend your rules, got you some sweet silver and a token! Nice! Congrats!
All I got was junk and clad.
 

Now THAT is what I call kicking!! Excellent hunts DO still happen! WTG man!

But did you have to use the brillo pad on the barber dime? ;)

Tell me what the feelings were when that half appeared?

LOL I think most of the damage to the Dime was because of how close to the street it was.
But I did Nail her just above the Forehead with my scoop :laughing7:

the half was either very deep or kept sliding down in the hole.
I was getting frustrated trying to reach it, when all of a sudden I saw the edge,
but my first thought was Aluminum Token of some type .
I think that's my 4th. maybe 5th. Walker in the last 2 Years.
all 40's I think.
There sure are allot lost out there.
had to be kids, How else do you drop a half & not notice ?
