    Last Couple of Hunts / Quarter, Dimes, Nickel & Indian

    I went out Thursday after work for about an hour and a half. The first house I stopped at said YES.
    I dug a 1950 Washington Quarter, a 1976 Mexican centavos & 7 wheats.

    Saturday we took a little road trip north into Wisconsin. We hit a couple of parks and did a little door knocking.
    The first park, Alec dug a 1917 Buffalo. The second park I dug a 1935 Merc. We weren't having a lot of luck at the parks so we decided to start doing some door knocking.

    The first house Alec dug a 1939 centavos and 2 wheats. I dug 7 wheats.
    The second & last house of the day, Alec dug 1959 Rosie, an 1896 Indian & 2 Wheats. I got 2 more wheats.
    Yes folks, he killed me today!!

    Good variety of finds. Love to dig some of those mexican coins but they do not get this far north. Thanks for sharing your outing!
    From the land of the Bluenose.....life is a beach at least till the tide comes in and the Bud is all gone. Swish and dig at the drop of a dime!

    An early buff With a date. Nice. Hey, even tho I only found one...a coin from panama can still end up this far north. Altho the Washington is shiny, wword how the back looks a little pitted.
