I couldn't resist another trip to the town common, so late this afternoon I took a drive there hoping too that it wouldn't be too busy seeing as it is a weekday. It wasn't bad at all and I was able to spend a few hours working one of the grassy squares. I didn't pick up any Indian Head cents this time, but I did manage several more wheat cents dated in the teens, the oldest dated 1909. I also dug up a good looking 1928 mercury dime and a 1928 Canadian cent.

Thank you! The dime does not have much in the way of wear. It's one of the nicer ones I have found of that year. :yes:
