Two weeks ago. I finally dug my first silver half dollar, a 1951-D Franklin Half, from the edge of the park. Also, I dug a 1918 wheat in the same area. It was a good day.

Oh momma! She's a beauty. <:
For some reason you just don't see many of the Franklins being found. They are definitely a nicely designed coin.
A big congrats to you anotherpulltap.
They're out there, but they have to be under your coil first. Keep swinging and you'll get one of them. It took me two years.Originally Posted by randy link=topic=7496.msg86368#msg86368 date=1319114166
