    Nice Saturday Hunt

    Today I hunted by myself as Rob had parenting duties he had to attend to. I went back the 1700's house where I had found the eagle hat plate. Nothing that good this time around but I did get a 1943 merc and 3 wheats.

    Also got a sterling silver bowl to a spoon. This is my 3rd silver bowl to a spoon but I have yet to dig a complete one.....someday.

    Thanks for reading and HH

    What!?! Your 3rd one? ::
    I wonder if they were used to make the silver rings made out of silverware handles? ::

    Nice finds Al!
