Weekend started out good but just couldn't keep the finds coming like I wanted them too. The finds I did make are good ones none the less and I just hope to continue pulling Silver as long as I can, even if the Quantity is or isn't there, Silver's Silver! Tim and I decided to try a different Town this weekend and we found a Small Park before Rick and his wife Lavonne met up with us. I found 2 Wheat Pennies and then the 3rd Signal I dug, out pop's a Silver. At first, I thought a Quarter but when I picked it out of the dirt, it was a Walker which shocked me some but that morning I had a Strong Feeling that I was going to pull another Half for the month and I was right.Tim pulled a Standing Liberty Quarter dateless of course, and then we left in hopes of Rick finding Silver here since we knew there was at least a chance. Rick didn't find any Silver but he had fun anyways. Tim had a Merc and some Wheat Pennies and if he had any other finds, I am unsure what they were. Lavonne found I believe a few Wheat Pennies and a Bank Token and a lot of Newer Pocket Change. Just to let you all know, so far I have pulled 5 Halves now since July 20th with Tim having 6 Halves for this month's finds for our next Club Meeting. This has been a Month that will never be forgotten, that is for sure. Onto what else I found this weekend. For Silver, I found another 5 which included 1 Walking Liberty Half Dollar dated 1917-s (Mint Mark on reverse and if I was to find a 1917 Plain, then I would have every one except the Obverse Varieties), 3 Mercury Dimes dated 1918,1920, and 1942, along with another Roosevelt Dime dated 1952-s. I also recovered 2 Indian Head Pennies dated 1900 and 1902. For Wheat Pennies, I found 18 more to add to the HUGE PILE that I have found this month alone. The dates are 09,11,15-d,18,(2)27-d,(2)28,30-d,36,36-d,39,41-d,(2)44-d,(2)45-d, and 48-d. I also found a few Misc. Items which are a Grimland Play Coin, 2 Pins with one having Life Saving Senior on it, and an old Cuff Link. That's the finds this last weekend, so enjoy and I hope to keep pulling them Silver's until Freeze-Up which will be here sooner than one would like. Good Luck and HH to you all.
