**My 3rd Wheat and First Silver Coin**

[MUD(S.W.A.T)]

Well, what can I say.... Lets see...umm! I did some hunting today??!! This female friend of mine has been asking me to take her hunting so today I did. I am going to start backwards because I can and because I want to save the best for last. Usually my best find is my last find this time was different. Last we searched the Old Hunted Out School. (This is where I found a dateless Buffalo and a Old Bank Token in earlier posts.) Ended at the area I have been over a bunch with bad results lots of trash. Searched the hillside a little, but no hits. First in front of the parking lot found some clad umm... 1966-1984 something. When I got to her house that was built in the late 1800's, I found a Wheat Penny on a trail going from the house to the back yard A...1953. My very first dig in her front lawn was 2 pennies 1961 and a 1962 in that same hole I found my very first 1943p War Nickle (35% Silver). My first silver coin, Woohoo!! No quarters at all none not one, hmm... odd!!??

Here are the pictures!!?

Keep @ it and HH!!

Way to go. 40% silver in that nickel. Keep posting. We'll soon see the old seated liberty stuff you're finding. People been loosing stuff of value since before the revolutionary war where you're from.

Thanks everyone for the congratulations and for your posts. Harmonica pieces...? I thought they are some type of construction thing??
Hollowpointred, yes I really do like those War Nickles they hold some heavy history! It's odd the only two valuable coins I have found have been from a War. I found the 1865 2 cent (Civil War) and this 1943 War Nickle (WWII) hmm... Neptunus Rex the real percentage of silver in the War Nickles is 35% we both are wrong. (Please see page 118 of your Red Book.) My female friend is allready a hooked Treasure Hunter she just has been out of the game a little. Silver Coins are around, must be one waiting for you Mike. I am guessing you are not in the States too, American Silver coins must be somewhere over there.

Well thanks again everyone, more posts welcome!

Keep @ it and HH!!

Yep those are definetly old harmonica pieces, most likely from the 1800's or early 1900's, If you ever want to try and unbend them try heating up the bends with a small torch or something to break all the crystalization that occurs, then slowly unbend em.

I think I may do that, thanks again.

Keep @ it and HH!!
