Early March Silver

Yesterday I spent some time working the field of a local park and picked up one silver Roosevelt dime as well as several wheat cents.

With the warmer weather we have been having lately I figured it might be worth it to give one of the Connecticut parks a try, so today I headed out to one I had frequented the latter part of last year. The day was beautiful with the temperature in the low 50's. It sure made for a relaxing time swinging the coil. I managed to dig up five silver dimes, one Barber, dated 1906, three mercs, dated 1919, 1920-S, and 1937-D, and a Rosie, dated 1959.

I dug up plenty of clad too, as well as fourteen wheat cents.

Now my machine is in need of a good cleaning. :cheesysmile:

:rofl: for a minute, when I first started to read your post, I thought you only found that lone Roosevelt. I was all ready to razz you until I scrolled down :rolleyes: Nice 1919 Mercury and 1906 Barber. If I were you I'd stick to Connecticut ;) A very good hunt and it must have felt really good to detect without 3 layers of clothes :lol:
 
You need to start a running total for silvers in your Sig... it's only March and we've already lost count! How many so far?

MA parks have been good to me too. :lol:

It did feel good to not have so many layers on, and in fact I did have to take off the hoodie and a pullover as it was too warm to have them on.

I had to check since I had not updated my log since January. :confused: So far I have 43. I may have to revise my goal for the year. :huh:

Very nice silver, and I really like the barber :yes: That park just never quits giving up silver for you. Beautiful start to the year.
