Today I took a drive to the same park I worked this past Tuesday and detected near and around another line of old trees. I picked up several silver coins there and after a good while I headed to the opposite side of the park to work another line of trees. From there I dug up two silver quarters, a 1920 Standing Liberty and a 1903 Barber, as well as a 1905-S Barber half. I walked away from that park with another eight silver coins in my pouch. :thumbsup01:
I needed just two more silver coins to reach the 400 silver coin mark this year. Now the count stands at 406.
This is the second half dollar I have dug up this week, both from the same park.
My E-Trac at rest, right where I dug up the Barber half.
It was great to be able to make out a date on the Standing Liberty quarter - 1920.
The silver dimes aren't bad either. :cheesysmile: The 1944 mercury dime made my 400th silver coin this year.
I also dug up this great looking sterling silver ring.
I like this one too. It looks like it may be some sort of metal clip, having the Woolworth Building on one side and details about the building on the other side. Clearly it is from the time when the Woolworth Building was still the tallest in the world.
This token is larger than a half dollar. The words on it read: A.W. Stone Clothing Furnishing & Shoes Northampton Mass and The holder of this token will be allowed 50 cents rebate on any suit or overcoat.
There were many clad coins too. I dug up 55 clad quarters - shown below - 42 clad dimes, and a good number of memorial cents.
Of course, I also dug up some trash. Below is a sampling of what I dig up during each hunt.
HH!

. A nice touch that picure of "Old Faithful" taking a breather under that tree . :smitten:
oke: Congrats on 400 :twirlingeyes: With more than half the year to go, is 800 in the cards?
You may be right though. Hopefully once I do some light cleaning on it I will be able to confirm it. :yes:
You told me you would leave them in the ground from here on out.
