Wasn't Exspecting That in a Field of Pennies!

[Ill Digger]

First off it was a rare thing today. Neither one of my boys had a baseball game :dontknow: lol So after doing a couple of long over due chores and a tuneup on the lawn mower I was off :happy: I decided to go to a old park that is partially wooded. In the woods I found a few 60's pennies. But no dimes or quarters of course lol Even a 59 memorial >:# So I started to hunt under some of the big old shade trees. Finally after about 2 hours I got my first old coin. A 1947d Wheatie. |) lol About a hour later I hit a area that was just loaded with 1 and 2 inch deep memorials! :hairpulling: Coppers and zincer mixed together! :hairpulling: I mean it was 2 or 3 hits on every swing! :twirlingeyes: :shocked04: I dug quite few of the copper signals . But then I got a nice deep penny/dime 9-41,12-42,10-40 signal that showed it was much deeper than The Field of Pennies lol. And at around the 6 inch mark I seen the edge of silver! :happydance01: I thought i was a foreign silver coin at first until I seen the &quot:daydream:NE DIME on the back. :shocked04:stretcher: Thats when I realized I had just found my 2nd Seated dime of 2012! eace: <: happydance02 It's a well worn 1876 Philly!

I haven't made a post in quite a while mainly due to not having time to get out and hunt as much as in the past. But I have made it out a few times here and there. A few weeks ago I went to the park here in town and found a wheat and the first piece of silver ever from that park! :hairpulling: lol It turned out to be this Sterling silver ring!

Hopefully things will slow down a bit for a while here soon. And hopefully we get some much needed rain >:\ :yes: And then maybe I'll get a chance to get out and try and catch up with everyone and their big silver counts. :envious: lol

Thanks for lookin' !
