Thread: Some Silvers After Work

    Some Silvers After Work

    I hunted for 1 1/2 hours after work last night and came home with a few keepers. This site is massive and dates back to the mid 1800s, so there should be a lot more there. Many repeat visits are in order.

    Here are my finds from last evening:

    Good job on those old coins Tony. I like the patina on the 42 mercury. Looks like the soil over there isn't as good on them Indians compared to where you used to find them. Best wishes and HH, Dave.
