View Full Version : Harvesting wheat... and one silver.

Well, I didn't get 41 wheat cents like Randy but I did manage to find 15 today. I hunted at three different sites and I was starting to worry that I was going to get skunked on silver. Once again, an orphan Merc saves the day. The school that has been so kind to me lately is starting to dry up. I only found 3 wheat cents there today and no silver. After about three hours I decided to hit a couple of other sites. The Merc came from a different school that I have hunted a few times in the past.

Nothing too spectacular, although I did get a 1909 wheat cent that cleaned up nicely. (But no S or VDB, unfortunately.)

Wow... I'd be happy with those keepers. :yes: Lots of nice wheat cents.
Plus, you gotta love the 'hunt saving' Merc that keeps us smiling. :happydance01:
Great job Tony.

Those are some good looking sites! No buffalos or older nickels popped out of the ground, or were you mainly keying in on the higher conductive sounds?

Nice hunt! :clapping:

Got a few oldies in there. Most of mine were from the 40s and 50s.
