Tuesday Night Hunt ---Got me a Walker

[Digger Don]

Went out solo this evening after work. I got permission at a house less than a mile from home. The house was built in 1903.
I only had about 45 minutes before dark so I kind of cruised through it. About fifteen minutes after I started, I got a 12-46 47
about 5 inches. It sounded like clad, but I dug it any way. Pulled out my plug, one more scoop of dirt and there she was. Wow, what a surprise, a 1939-S Walking Liberty Half Dollar. Before I left, I also dug 3 wheats. The home owner invited me back tomorrow to finish the front yard and start the back. He also said that he would talk to his nieghbors for me. Got to love it :crossfingers:

Congrats on the big piece of silver Digger Don! Fifteen minutes in and a WLH = :happydance01:

Good luck finishing the front yard and happy hunting in the back. I'm curious what will come up next.

I sure hope the neighbors are as accommodating as he is.

 

[Lodge Scent]

And a nice one at that !

WTG on the big silver. Also hoping that the rest of the yard is good to you and the neighbors all say yes.

You are killing it on the half dollars this year, Don! I've never seen anyone find so many!

We're going to start calling you "Half Dollar Don". :thumbsup01:

Thanks Tony, I appreciate it. Only problem is, I dug an 1895 Barber and now this Walker. All the others were dug by Digger Al. :envious:

 

[Full Metal Digger]

I agree with Tony--You need to change your name to Half-Dollar Don! Too bad "Fifty Cent" is already taken by that Rapper guy! :lolsign:

Nice Walker Don! I have found just one of those and I love it (as you can tell from my avatar).

WOOHOOO I got mine last week. You know, the only other half I've dug (not including a Kennedy) is an 1894 barber. What say you we go for a seated half next? :lol: Excellent job Don!
