Five Silver Afternoon

[angellionel]

It wasn't uncomfortably cold today, so I took a drive out to one of the CT parks. When I arrived there I began working the outside of the park, an area facing the road. But I soon decided to head toward one of the fields. As I was considering moving to the field a vehicle stopped near me. It was Bruce. He was itching to swing his E-Trac. Apparently we both have the same ailment, silvernitis mustahaveit.

I waited for Bruce to park his car and then we walked out to the field where we chatted for a bit. He then remained at that location while I walked over to the area I wanted to hit. There was plenty of trash to deal with there, but I worked it slowly and managed to dig up five silver coins - three mercury dimes, dated 1923, 1940-D and 1941, a 1964 Washington quarter, and a 1928 standing liberty quarter. I also picked up a nice sterling silver pin. It's the size of a dime.



The standing liberty quarters sure are beautiful coins. They do make for sweet finds, though I would never complain about finding a 1964 quarter.



Three more mercury dimes added to the pile.



Now I'm looking forward to the weekend!

HH!

I told you that hill had more silver.

I thought for sure you would pull some silver from that other location. It's where I dug up one of the Walkers and several mercury dimes. I'm sure there is more there. It is a large area.

We were detecting at opposite sides of the park, though I think Bruce may have heard my loud yes! when I pulled the Standing Liberty quarter.

You know, I doubted I would make 450, but now I'm daring to hope.

Nice hunt Angel....umm Bruce where's your stuff ?? You should have set up your ultra sleek spy camera and watched Angel like a hawk Then I could have stolen his secrets from you Glad you guys got out to hunt. I'm hoping Saturday is bearable

[Stang1968]

Nice work. I'd love to find a SLQ. That one's even sweeter by the fact that you can read the date.
I think we could start a contest for 2010 where we all guess how many silver coins Angel will dig up.
