Chilly Weekend Silver

Yesterday I had received a call from Scott (catskillcomics) and we had a short chat, but his mentioning finding silver got me itching for some myself. lol So late afternoon I headed to detect at a park for a couple of hours hoping to score with one or two silver coins. I did manage two mercury dimes and one Roosevelt dime. I also found several old wheat cents and other miscellaneous items.

Today I hit a nearby town common. It was cold because of strong winds, but I still managed to detect for about two hours. I found one Barber dime, an unrecognizable copper, and a few more wheat cents before calling it quits. :frozen:

It is an ox knob. lol I should have left it for Angie. lol

So this is how it begins....this year lol
I wonder why the Merc is painted red :confused:
Sweet silver!!
Congrats :grin:

When I first saw the merc with the red paint it took me back to when I was a kid, when I had one like it, but which I promptly spent on candy. lol Those were the days. :daydream:

There are more of those cherished ox knobs just waiting for you to come along and dig them up. :cheesysmile: You may end up hating them more than zincolns. lol
