I finally got out a couple days ago for about an hour and a half before the rain hit. I headed to my go to spot in hopes of finding a few more silvers I may have overlooked. As usual the grove did not disapoint I found one wheat and one Merc. The Merc turned out to be a good one 1926-S in great condition. My price guide list only 1.52 Million made.

I have everything logged but have not total it up yet. I will do it one of these days and make a post. I've actually thought of writing an article for W&E Treasure about the site. I've always wanted to see if I could get an article published and this site is a once in a lifetime find. I know that the silver total is over 100 by now, not including what few friends I have invited to hunt with me have found.Originally Posted by aloldstuff
