Finally made it out since the Ice Storms hit our Area.

Meet up with a good buddy to hit some parks and take advantage of the weather.

After a couple hours I managed to score a 1962 Silver Dime...Nothing too great , but better than nothing.

A good hour after that , i noticed a guy that seemed a little shady digging thru the dumpster a little ways from me.

Then I start hearing him yelling something, So I pretty much hauled ass to my buddy that was just about 500 feet away.

I wasnt really even swinging, just moving to get away from this guy, I ended up getting a solid 90-91.

Normally I wouldnt have dug at this park. because the whole time i was there, i was getting Quarter/Half dollar hits from the large mouth alum. screw tops.

But this one seemed a little deeper than the tops were..I dug down about 2 inches, saw what appeared to be a smashed screw top lid, than once i felt the weight. I flipped it on its side and saw that beautiful reeded edge.

1942 Walker!!

I was in complete shock, i wasnt expecting to find this AT ALL.

I ran over to show my buddy and he was shocked too. mainly becaue the lack of coin at this place.

The first 3 coins I dug, 2 of them were silver, So needless to say. I had a great day.

thanks for reading.

And Merry Christmas!

hahahaha....The Sad part he was wearing one.....just 2 feet below his waist...lol....I dont know if im just getting old, or people are just getting sloppier....But I sure the hell dont get that style one bit

I'm right there with you on that D-n-D. The best part about it is watching them get tripped up over their own huggies while trying to outrun the cops. :tongue3:
-MM-
 

Sweet walker!
 

Congratulations. This must be the year for these. I have found 3 in the last 6 months and a total of 5 for the year. Nothing like seeing big silver pop out. Keep diggin them up.HH

but save some for me!
 

Lucky for me the past year they have been doing major sidewalk and street tearouts. Best year ever. Compiling a post of all my finds.hopefully will be up soon.

Thats where you find the majority of them? This is the first one I ever found at a Park, all the others i have found were either in home yards and once on a football field. I too watch for those tearouts....seems to be the only way to find the goods easy
 

Good going Diggin',bet that made a sweet sound!

Oh it did!...Whats scary thou, is I almost dont dig these signals, because they are almost too good to be true....this one just seemed to stay on the same numbers so i gave it a shot

thanks!
