Default It was windy but to heck with it!!!!!!!!

Got off early from work today and even though it was a high of 42 I had to get out an MD. Went to an old house that was built in the early 1900's. Put new batteries in the trusty ace 150 and got the sweat shirt on with the tobogin and hood and hunted for about an hour and a half till I couldnt take it anymore. All in all it was a good day , still have not found silver at this site yet but I know it is there. My finds were 1955 d wheat, 1965 dime and another wheat penny that is unreadible. small button with no writing or inscription on it and one fabulous fishing weight. One thing that really ticks me off though is in the last couple of months I have been the king of the 1965 dime Quarter and nickle every single one that I find seems to be this date. Man can I have that one year break . Thanks for reading guys. Seth

Default Sound Like You're on the Right Track.

Keep pounding that site until it breaks open for you. Every layer of trash you strip brings you closer to the old loot!

Cheers,

BDA

Good job on getting out! Sounds like a good hunt to me. The silver will hit when least expected, Beale.

Smile Here comes the silver!

Here's hoping for a nice warm spell for you. Hopefully you can break the 1965 barrier. I too have found loads and loads of 1965 dimes and quarters. I didn't think they made THAT many of them!
Happy hunting, those 1964 coins are waiting for you!
