I finally struck Silver at the old school today. I have pulled a bunch of Wheat pennies from this site along with a war nickel and a Buffalo nickel last week, but today I pulled a Silver Quarter 1943. And of course just to keep my feet on the ground and kill my joyful day, don't you know I put a nice groove into the neck of good old George with my digger! But none the less it's good silver. I also pulled 4 more Wheats 1926, 48, 57 and a no date. I am gonna try and clean this one up a little more to try and get a date.

But there you have it finally my 1st true Silver, and a quarter no less!! Enjoy the pics!!

Grats on the silver. One thing I have learned is once you get a large amount of shallower targets out of the way the more deeper stuff opens up. I once hunted this park first 5 trips only produced clad tons of it once that was out of the way 12 consecutive trips silver showed up and I mean alot of it. Remeber you can walk over something one day and the next an area you have already went over can produce. Been there numerous time and always wonder how I missed it the 1st 10 times. Be persistant slow and steady wins the race.
 

Woohoo at last !! :icon_thumleft:

Keep @ It and HH!! :D ;D
