Found an old park and had my best silver day ever.

[Tony Two-Cent]

My first double digit silver day!

Yesterday I spent a lot of time on Google maps trying to find some new spots to hunt. I ended up with a list of over 25 parks that I have never been to. Most of them are about 60-90 minutes away from my house.

Today I decided to try out one of my new spots. My plan was to try hunting at a park for awhile and if I didn't find much move on to the next site. I ended up staying at the first park all day. I hunted there for about five hours. This park turned out to be a real honey hole.

My finds for the day:
4 Indian Head Cents: 1889, 1899, 1902, 1903
14 Wheat Cents including a 1909
1 Buffalo Nickel: 1929
1 War Nickel: 1944-D
2 Jefferson Nickels: 1941, 1954
4 Barber Dimes: 1893, 1898, 1904, 1913
4 Mercury Dimes: 1917, 1919, 1926, 1944
1 Roosevelt Dime: 1952-D

The keepers before cleaning:



Ten silver coins today! My previous best was 8 in one day.


Indian Head Cents 1889, 1899, 1902, 1903


Barber Dimes 1893, 1898, 1904, 1913
I had to look at the 1893 with a magnifying glass to get the date. I've never found a Barber Dime that's worn so bad. Who knows if it ever had a mint mark or not.



Mercury Dimes 1917, 1919, 1926, 1944



Thanks for looking and happy hunting!
