    Sweet silver and some wheats found

    Got out and hunted a elementary and a high school this weekend . Both had some wheats to be found . Best being a 1920S . Other dates were 1942S , 1944S and 1958D . Also found a 1958 nickel . Best find was a sweet silver Irish Claddagh ring . Found two other rings both were kids junkers . Total clad for 6 hours of hunting was $13.00

    Nice rings. You like the wheats? I only like them if nothing else significant gets dug. I was looking thru mine and I couldn't believe I had five 1919 wheats. Idk why it was so common for those early years.
    Future goals: Capped bust coin, Flowing hair LC, Classic head LC, VT copper, MA copper, Pistareen, Two-cent pc, SLQ, GW inaugural button, Excelsior button, Civil war token, and a gold ring.

    I've noticed that myself around home that most of my old wheats are 1919
