Hello!
Ron and I took a drive up to Corvallis today to do some detecting. We had a great time, and the weather was NICE! Here's what I dug:
1908-S Barber Dime
1920 Mercury Dime
1943-S Mercury Dime
1950-S Roosevelt Dime
1952-S Roosevelt Dime
12 wheat cents dating from 1913 to 1952 (best being a 1913-S!)
4 clad quarters
23 clad dimes
ZERO nickels
53 Memorial cents
Toy gun
I took pic's of the silver coins before and after I cleaned 'em up. And I took a close-up of the date area on the Barber dime just for the fun of it. These five silvers bring me up to 88 silver coins for the year. If I remember correctly, this is only the 3rd time in over 16 years of metal detecting that I've scored a silver dime TRI-FECTA in one hunt.
The little toy gun is the smallest "cap" gun that I've ever dug ~ it's shorter than three inches!
Thanks for looking!
