Weather has cooperated nicely here in SE Michigan the last few weeks and I managed to get out last week during my lunch break and found a 1952 D Washington quarter to start my 2019 year.
Then on Saturday I visited "Morgan" Park and came away with some awesome finds. The first was a 1926 D merc and then 10 ft away I thought I was perhaps digging a wheatie but I saw in my dirt pile the edge of a small silver! I thought for sure I had a seated half dime.

Instead it is a Canadian "Fishy" or 5 cent from 1874. If you look close at the front on the "n" of Canada there appears to be a die crack issue.

A few hours later I found another awesome coin. This one is an 1859 Fattie Indian that is in really nice shape. I just love looking at the clear date on it.

The last few hours of the day I spent detecting another local spot and found a 1914 Barber dime, 1945 merc, a 1928 Buff and an 1887 IHP. Saturday was a awesome day!

Yesterday for lunch I found a war nik and today I found a 1959 rosie. I am not going to bother with taking a pic. My wheat to silver ratio has never looked better...and probably won't last.
Well it appears that the cold is about to set in for awhile so I will just have to stare at these for a month or two.
Stay warm! Jared
