This beautiful New England weather has been holding up so it is hard to resist grabbing the detector to go for a little dirt fishing. I did just that this afternoon by heading to a Connecticut park. Though the park was being actively used I was able to get some detecting done. I managed to find four silver coins, a 1943 Washington quarter, a 1905 Barber dime, and two 1943 mercury dimes.
Here is a mercury dime and the Barber dime, still wrapped in soil.
The mercury dimes do have some fine details to them.
There are about 17 wheat cents in the pile.
HH!
