The weather was sunny and warm this weekend. I hunted the new spot with Smittyman on Saturday, then took P@tch there on Sunday. The hunts were about (5) hours each.

Here is the (188) coins and other "smalls" that I dug.

This is a VFW war medal. I believe it once hung from a ribbon on a veteran's chest.

I am coin shooter at heart, and something about silver coins just gets me going. Early on Saturday morning, this shiny disc appeared in some dirt that I had thrown out of a hole. 1964 dime!

The edge of this coin appeared out of a dirt clod. I could tell it was a quarter by the thickness! Can you ID any objects by their thickness?

I pulled the plug out of this hole, and there was a Mercury dime looking up at me!

I ended the weekend with these (4) silver coins... and a smile on my face!
