Hello My Friends!!

I just got back from my "silver park" today, and the silver was flowing as usual for me. I met Curt(Bibleman) at my favorite "honey hole" site early this morning. I was just hoping to get one silver coin out of this spot today. I have been detecting this little spot for the past 7 weeks, and it has produced an enormous amount of silver/wheats for me. More than I could ever have expected. Curt has been a good luck charm to me on my past two hunts to this spot. I have netted 14 silvers while detecting with him, including 6 today! I never would have believed it if I didn't witness it with my own two eyes. :o And I finished my day off in style with a '44 Walking Liberty Half. :headbang: The Walker didn't have the high tone silver sound. It sounded like a clad dime, but ID'ed like a typical half dollar, so I dug it. At around 6" down, I scooped a handful of dirt out of the ground, laid it on my mat, and saw the rim of a large silver....if you're an old coin hunter, hardly anything can match the excitement of seeing a large rimmed silver coin in your dirt pile. :occasion18: Right after digging the Walker, I told Curt I was calling it a day! My final tally was 6 Silver ('44 Walker, 3 Mercs('17, '41, '43), 2 Rosies('54, '64)), along with 9 Wheaties. Two of the wheats were semi-key daters; 1 chopped '14S and '11S.

Another fine day at the "silver park".....When will it go dry? Not even I know that. :icon_scratch: But I do know that I dug my 155th silver coin from this park this year. Oh Yes, and my streak...It's still alive at 34 straight silver hunts!! :blob8:

It was good hunting with you today, Curt. :thumbsup: You've definitely been a good luck charm to me.

Thanks for looking!
Keep The Passion High!!

Man, sure I find silver once in awhile but... :icon_scratch: This is ridiculous 6 silver in one day? 155 for the year ? Holly Crap !! ??? :o I need a site like this. What kind of park is it, how did you find it? Everywhere I go to I find clad, nothing but clad. Any public place it is nothing but clad, trash and Pull tabs. I have been hunting for 4 years and every half dollar hit is trash. ??? People are finding big silver all over the place but not me !! :crybaby2: Did I live such a bad life or past life to have this bad karma?? Hmmm, I don't know !! :dontknow:

Nice work !! :D :wink:

Keep @ it and HH!! ;D
 

Great finds Dan- isn't it incredible when you have a site like that. If you have seen some of my posts, I refer to "Seated Park" often, which is a park near my home here in Mass. I have found a total of 659 keepers, including 192 silvers.

Congrats and continued success!

Nice work !! Cheesy Wink

Keep @ it and HH!!

Hang in there, MUD(S.W.A.T)!! You've got to keep plugging away. And when what you're finding doesn't satisfy you, you have to do something about it. New locations, new machines, whatever it takes. But the real joy is just being out there and swinging the machine looking for treasure. My park is a very popular old park. If you have any parks that pre-date the 60's, you have a chance for the old coinage. If you're not digging wheaties, the silvers are going to be even tougher to find. Good luck! Oh, that's 155 from the same park....I'm at 282 for the year! :thumbsup:

WTg Dan on yet another silver streak. When will this end :D That park is just amazing. It must be a famous, old park that has been a popular hotspot for a long time. I just cannot believe what you have been pulling out. I like to touch all of those gleaming little coins ;D Must be a pretty sight :icon_sunny:
