Hello Everyone,
I must say, this is getting to be a habit. But for me, it's a habit I hope I will never get over...
I went back today to the "silver mine" park with Jon(goldenapples). After digging some 70+ silvers between 4 of us in the past 2 weeks, I couldn't imagine there was much left. Well, I was wrong. I ended the day with 8 more silvers (1 Washington, 6 rosies, 1 merc), along with 16 wheaties(not a bad silver/wheat ratio). Also got a nice man's silver ring that has quite a few diamonds in it. They must be CZ's, but I will test it as soon as I can get my diamond tester charged. Found two SS earrings also. I dug a little clad today too; about 36 quarters. Digging one of those quarters helped me find my silver quarter. There's probably more silver there being masked by all the clad in the park.
It was a terrific day, with great company. Wish you could have been there Mike(ratman); I'm sure you would rather have been detecting than having a root canal
Funny, just a few weeks ago I got my 400th silver coin; now I'm close to 470. I thought my count was going to slow down by the end of summer, but it seems to be increasing even faster. Well, I can't complain about that...
Thanks for looking,
