    Hard to believe I got out .........

    I got out a couple hours today and went back to an old church picnic area I have been hunting off and on the last few years. I did get a couple keepers today. This is the site where I found this little gem last year:

    I'd say that site is a winner! The 1835 bust dime that you found last year is incredible! How cool that you were able to find a Barber Dime and a Two-Cent Piece at the same site! I would be pounding that picnic area hard!

    Congrats on the great finds!

    10 Large Cents, 415 Indian Heads, 2 Two Cent Pieces, 1 Capped Bust Half Dime, 1 Seated Half Dime, 10 Shield Nickels, 68 V Nickels, 124 Buffalo Nickels, 31 War Nickels, 16 Seated Dimes, 131 Barber Dimes, 405 Mercury Dimes, 249 Rosies, 4 Seated Quarters, 18 Barber Quarters, 20 Standing Liberty Quarters, 89 Silver Washingtons, 1 Seated Half, 3 Barber Halves, 16 Walking Liberty Halves

    Thanks all for the comments !!! Hope to get back there early next week and snoop around. I have hammered the site pretty good in the past, but as you see there is still more there.
