Default Mr.Silver Finds a 262 year old "Silver" Coin!

Today was my day, I went down Midland Park(10th park), not the Big Park, I found a Gold Button first, Scott & Ives CO. and 3 Pennies.

Went home, ate a half of Italian Sub from Panera bread Co.

Called kkfry, How you like to find silver at Mr.Silver Honey Hole, he was there first, I was only there for a hour, I asked kkfry if he found any silver coins yet. He said not yet, I was hollered Quarter! and then another Quarter! then another Quarter! this time 3 Quarters in one hole!

kkfry raised his hands up in the air! Silver! I said no sh*t! I was glad for him! He said Silver! again!!! That made his "DAY"-he's out of the Non-Silver on TQ!!!

The next hole of mine, was a 2 Buffalo's and a foriegn coin-New Buffalo(2005-P),Old Buffalo(1934),
and a Silver HalfCrown of George II(1745).925 silver.,.075 copper WOW!!! a 262 year old silver coin with 2 Buffalo's in one hole!!! in less than a hour!

My finds today in kkfry + Mr.Silver Honey Hole was:
12> Quarters
10> Dimes
6> Nickels
2> Buffalo's-34', 2005-P
8> Pennies
1> 1745 Georgius II Half Crown(great Britian) starting bid on E-Bay is $ 90.00
1> Laser Pointer
2> Pieces of Jewelry=Flower Keychain + Dog Tag-peace,love,happiness
That's 39 coins = $ 4.48¢ in less than a hour!

Mr.Silver
I will take pic's later! My oldest coin was 1782 silver Peru coin Now it's a 1745 UK coin it's going hard to top that coin!

Hey Bill,
The silver coin was not found in Midland Park, it was found in a honey hole of mine I used to do in late 70's and early 80's, I used to come home with pouch's and pouch's of old silver! Over 500 silver coins or more was found there!!!
