The weather was not too cooperative for detecting this weekend but I'm grateful for any kind of December hunting. I hit a few tot lots in the rain with nothing amazing to show for it. I also hunted the spot where my father and I scored 6 silvers last weekend but all I managed was 5 more wheats and a nice 1935 Buff. I think this is the nicest Buff I've ever dug - certainly the clearest date. Total for the weekend was 150 coins worth $10.74 including the wheats and Buff plus some neat buttons, some junk jewelry, and a 5 Kuna Croatian coin.

Hopefully there's still a few more weekends of hunting left. I need a few more bucks in clad to get to $400 for the year and I wouldn't mind a few more silvers or other nice keepers before hanging it up for the winter. We shall see!

happy hunting.

As long as the weather is cooperating, take advantage of it. That is a nice buff and I hope you can reach the $400 before the freeze. :congrats:

I don't doubt that you didn't find any silver. You didn't have your lucky charm with you (me). lol

That is a really nice buffalo nickel and I think there still a few days of nice weather in store for December so I imagine you'll hit your $400.00 mark. Good luck on more silver.

Nice hunt!

:congrats:
