Chilly Weekend Silver

[angellionel]

Yesterday I had received a call from Scott (catskillcomics) and we had a short chat, but his mentioning finding silver got me itching for some myself. lol So late afternoon I headed to detect at a park for a couple of hours hoping to score with one or two silver coins. I did manage two mercury dimes and one Roosevelt dime. I also found several old wheat cents and other miscellaneous items.

Today I hit a nearby town common. It was cold because of strong winds, but I still managed to detect for about two hours. I found one Barber dime, an unrecognizable copper, and a few more wheat cents before calling it quits. :frozen:

When I first saw the merc with the red paint it took me back to when I was a kid, when I had one like it, but which I promptly spent on candy. lol Those were the days. :daydream:

It really is a thing of beauty. :smitten: And yes, it did feel great to be out again. :yes:

[sniffy]

I have to hand it to ya, you are the best silver picker.

[russellt]

congrats . great bunch of finds all the way around . coins were painted so that establishments who had jukeboxes could keep it playing with house money and thus , entertain their patrons. while at tthe end of the day ,,,,, they get their coins back to reuse the next day ..

[catskillcomics]

I was wondering why you haven't been posting, or out hunting.. I thought maybe you were letting us get a lead before killing silver rofl
Glad you made it out Angel!! Great hunt as usual! thumbsup01

[catskillcomics]
