Connecticut Park Silver

Today I checked out a Connecticut park I had not been to before. But I didn't remain there long as it wasn't in the best of areas. I need to return with a hunting buddy. :grin: I then headed to another park I had worked on several occasions early last year. Before arriving at the park I stopped to hit a grassy strip on the way and dug up a 1964 Roosevelt dime before continuing on. :cool: At the park I dug up four more silver coins, three mercury dimes, dated 1926, 1937, and 1942, as well as a fine looking 1905-O Barber quarter.

Here is the 1926 mercury dime still covered with soil.

And a 1937 mercury dime is in this one.

The Barber quarter was a very nice surprise.

Always be safe. A partner is always a good idea when unsure about an area. You bring up a very good guideline to follow Angel. Thanks for the reminder. Gorgeous looking Silver. Even more impressive is the pictures of the dirt. Thawed completely, no ice crystals... I can't wait. Great hunt, thanks for sharing.

Keep Swing'in

I would not be a good guide. I would end up losing everyone. :lol: :lol: Actually, though, a forum group hunt would be great! We will look into planning something like that. :yes:

That would be great! Btw, I just sent liability release form for a DFX only hunt in Ohio. It should be a good one- 600 acre boyscout camp! My mom, hubby, kids and I are camping out and they're gonna let me hunt my hearts desire :yes:
About 6 weeks- I'm counting the days...
