Hey Diggers!
What an epic hunt we had today! And what a great way to end the year. Digger Don & Noah were kind enough to invite me to meet them at their little honey hole from last weekend. I drove 3 1/2 hours to get there and boy was it worth it! I got a WONDERFUL bucket list item (a silver thimble) that has eluded me for 8 years. We pulled 19 silvers between all 3 of us and only hunted 4 yards! There were indian cents, buffalo nickels, V nickels, a grand slam, and 2 silver spoons among the great finds!
I also got my first ever grand slam in dimes!
I think the silver thimble must be very special. It is hand-engraved with a nautical scene and has a 67 and anchor also. I'm hoping it means it is dated 1867! What do you think? (especially Del!)
Here's some pics, thanks for looking and HH, Dave.
