These are from the last week or so of hunts. The first pic are some silvers from a park in an old town that I had always figured was too new to hold anything old but I noticed that on a plot map that there were homes surrounding the park back in the early 1930's so maybe there would be something there hiding. I will definitely go back there again.

Then the last pic is from an evening hunt in the same old town. I hit a school site and got a couple wheats and a 1923 merc that was very tarnished. As the sun went down I hit a city owned area next to some old buildings...I dug about 10 wheats in a row. After that I started skipping the wheat signals which I rarely ever do, but I will be going back to get them because sometimes those wheat signals turn into worn barber dimes or even half dimes. I am thinking someone already cherry picked this place. Oh well.

Congrats on all those wheat cents and the silver coins! :clapping:

Is there a Native American design on the silver ring?

Definitely go back as I just dug a 12-40 that turned out to be a Merc and a 12-44 last night that was a Rosie. Nice hunts. WD

Congrats on the nice score of coins. Washington looks like it took a few hits from a lawn mower at some point. Definitely head back.
