    Weekend Silver - Met With Z118

    Yesterday I had been working another section of a park I have been hitting these past few weeks and picked up two mercury dimes, dated 1917 and 1924. There were many clad coins and a few wheat cents among the finds as well. Since I was supposed to meet up with Matt (Z118) this morning, I figured this new section would be good ground for us to work together.

    These are my finds from Saturday's hunt.



    This morning Matt arrived as planned and we headed to the selected location. We spent the better part of the day detecting the area. We both dug up some neat finds. I'll let Matt show what he found when he gets a chance to post. He was very happy with his finds, that's for sure. Nice going Matt!

    For my part, I dug up four silver coins, mercs dated 1917-S and 1942, a 1947 Roosevelt dime and a 1916 barber dime. The 1917-S mercury dime, my first silver of the day, made my 350th silver of the year.

    I also picked up several wheat cents and a silver pendant, which is smaller than a dime. The word 'silver' is engraved on the back.







    It was a fun hunt Matt! Thank you for stopping to meet up with me while on your trip to NH. I hope you enjoyed your day detecting at the park. It truly was a pleasure to meet you!

    I'm going to try for 375 before the ground freezes, but I doubt it's doable at this point. It will be fun trying though.

    It was great seeing Z's reaction at finding the first coin. I know that feeling very well.

    I think it stands for Lionel Hunts Silver

    Angel... thanks for an amazing hunt! I'm going to try to post it now. It was GREAT to meet you and I hope we can do it again at some point!

    That silver pin is my favorite find though. Merc and Barbers are great for sure but that pin is one of a kind.

    I love the silver pin too.

    It definitely was a fun hunt, and we both walked out of there with a few nice pieces. We have to do it again sometime.
