    I'm almost there!!

    Im almost at 87 silver coins for the year. I hit 83-85 yesterday. My total last year was 86 and my goal this year was to hit 100 but I will be happy just to beat last years.
    These are my finds from my last 3 hunts. The first Merc is a 1917 that found at the grove.
    The Indian is a 1902, it was found at an old one room school house that is still standing. It was some of the hardest detecting I've done. There was a lot of brush and junk on the property and I felt I was lucky just to find the one coin.
    The last bunch of coins are from the camp that I've hunted a couple of times. The Rosie's is 1952 the Mercs are 41 & 43 and there are 11 wheats in the pile.
