Default 4 days of diggin with my dad...33 silver coins!!!

Made my annual fall coin hunting trip to my dads in Ohio and it was a great time as usual. We did a few sites in the buckeye state the first 2 days and then we hit our favorite park across the line in Midland Pa. the last 2 days. I dug 33 silver coins 23 of which came from Midland. We have been diggin that park a couple times a year for the past 3 years and the silver we have pulled out of there is just crazy. That park has some nasty ground and it is hard to get any depth but the right machine will get it done. My totals for 4 days are:
1 Barber Quarter
2 Silver Wash Quarters
4 Barber Dimes
18 Mercs
8 silver Rooseys
3 ihs
170 wheaties
2 buffalos
3 silver jewelry
handful of newer junk coins
My dads totals were similar
It sure was a fun time diggin with my dad and I cant wait for my next trip up in the spring.

Default A Great Time and Good Diggings!

Hello Marc,
I agree that the best part of the digging was being able to share it with Your Father! The finds are good but the ability to spend time with Dad is Priceless!!!!!

Continued HH, Roger
