Its done! I finally broke the 50 silver coins mark today! :twirlingeyes:
You all won't have to listen to me whine about not making it 50 coins. lol
Started the day with a 1953 Rosie, & then a 1940 Merc. Along with 6 wheaties, 2 more tokens and a small pin of some sort (the pin needs a little attention with mineral oil) i'll post it up again once clean.
I started a new area where I was getting all the wheaties, so I'll be heading back there next as I am pretty sure there is silver sleeping somewhere close by.

Congrats Scott! That is an excellent achievement by any measurement. The Rosie was your 50th, no? I hope you are treating it well. lol

You should be able to pick up some more silver from that new location. :)

Congrats!!! 50 silvers sure beats me lol By about 40 ;) Great day for you and the tokens are real nice too. I love tokens because they are so individual and most times unusual. That place is gonna be your favorite for a while. thumbsup01

Congratulations on 50! I could only dream of finding that many silvers around here. Keep hitting that site before it snows.

Yeh, my 50th coin was the Rosie, but hey, I'll take it.. I'm pretty sure there is plenty more silver at the fairgrounds.. these two were by Iron, which is why I missed them the first time around
