    Little bit of Silver

    Got permission to hunt two properties. Hunted the first one today. Small lot with house that was probably built in early 30's or 40's. Found a little over $2.00 in clad and mem. A neat little piece of ornamental metal. Found two wheats, 1952-D and a 56-D. Then found the 1935 Washington. Then I hit a target that was reading 92, 93. I thought, OMG! Not another silver dollar, surely not! Well it wasn't a silver dollar, but a pretty neat find all the same. It was a sterling silver pocket watch case. On the inside of the case it reads, Sterling, Watch Specalties C9, Swiss, 321106. OK for a three hour hunt. Gonna hit the other property Sunday. Weather is great right now, 55 and sunny. Thanks for looking.[attachimg=1][attachimg=2][attachimg=3][attachimg=4][attachimg=5][attachimg=6][attachimg=7][attachimg=8]

    That's more than a little bit of silver! I'd say that pocket watch is a nice big hunk of silver, and the silver quarter is nothing to sneeze at either!
