My Last Hunt on Saturday

[catskillcomics]

Friday we got a little snow, but on Saturday it was pretty nice, melted all the snow, making my last hunt a very sloppy one :-\ but was happy to get out for a couple hours...
Besides a couple wheaties, I end with 2 more mercs and a 1929 New York dog tag.. :clapping:

Final count for the year : $368.23 in change, 8.64 ounces of scrap silver, 1 gold ring, 133 silver coins and 7 Large copper coins

Now its time to work on my end of year video :cheering:

Those are a good end-of-year pair of mercury dimes. :clapping: You had a great year, Scott. Congrats!

Awesome way to end the year!! <:

133 silvers is very impressive. Plus, there are quite a few nice ones in that total. :yes:

About when do you folks get to start the new season out there? This year, I was able to find some thawed areas at the end of February.

Congrats on a great year Scott. :beerbuddy:

I generally try to get out in mid Feb, if the ground isn't thawed enough, I hit areas with south/Southwest facing hills or slopes, they get the most sun during the day and are typically thawed enough to hunt..

Nice ending hunt Scott. You had an impressive year, finishing very strong. That is a good amount of scrap silver too :shocked04: :clapping:

Very nice stats my friend! And it looks like the price of silver will keep going up next year too. Bets wishes for 2011. Dave.

Great silver coin count Scott! :happydance01: :happydance01: :happydance01: All around good year for you, I've enjoyed your pics and posts :) I'll keep a look out for your end-of-year video.


btw this is my first full year hunting totaling 25 silver coins- not too bad for a newbie. Now let's see how 2011 treats us both!

last hunt :confused: say it isn't so Scott 8/ hey you never know you may just yet get out one more time and if you don't you had a great year with very impressive silver totals my friend :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: i'm also looking toward your video.congrats again Scott

Very nice totals. That is my goal for next year to come close to 100 silvers, but since I only had 12 this year I really need to do some more research. At the end of this year my totals picked up when I finally started to understand my machines language (if you folks know what I mean)
Some of my other goals are my first large cent, barber anything, pre 1900 coins, and some gold of any form.

Nice finds and congrats on an awesome year!
