Hello,

We went to a house that Cheese got permission to hunt last week with high hopes of breaking the dry spell,
with fresh batteries, pain meds, & possitive thoughts we started swinging. Then it happened, "Cheese" called out,
got a wheat, then another & another & another. This went on for a while and I have found nothing. Finally I hit a
steady signal, digging carefully so not to damage my first good find of the day "the most perfect, oldest piece of
silver in all the county i am sure of it." I removed the most wonderful coin opened my hand and it was a '43 merc.

First of a five silver day, only two of which I found, also a few wheats and some other items pictured below.

ENJOY...........

That did turn out to be a decent spot, huh? Hopefully we can get back there this coming weekend. Maybe you'll have a chance to catch up to me on the wheat count, hehe ;D :D. (I found 16 wheats there in a small area...the oldest was 1910).
 

nice finds offcenter ;) love those mercs !
 

Great finds!
 

The silver coins are cool, but the pin/badge is very unique!

Congratulations and be careful with that pistol! :D
