Hello all!

It hit 76 here in CT today... I hit 2 local parks... Wheat backed pennies were flying out of the ground, but the silver... not so much... :-(

This big heavy token was screaming like a half... I would have liked the half... but this is cool as well :-)

This 1927 S Mercury Silver Dime wasn't very deep.... 4-5...

I hit the 2nd park with a specific goal of finding my 20th Indian Head Penny for the year... (This park has yielded many of them for me :-) )

1880 Indian Head (#20 for 2011)

Nice hunt from the parks Paul.
Sometimes those mega wheat, few silver days can be frustrating. :yes:
It's all good though. You picked up a nice Merc and IH as well as an awesome token. :clapping:
Congrats on the hunt and on making the banner!! thumbsup01

Hey Paul, nice looking Merc you got there :clapping: Cool looking medal too. I guess it's as good as a half lol Could have been an old faucet, >:# but turned out to be a great target instead :yes: Congrats on the 20th Indian you were searching for :clapping:
