    And this why I search around the stumps of old split rail fence lines. Also behind old prices. The hunt continues. Peace Roy

    Also check old stone walls... corners in particular, or where exceptionally large stones are part of the construction. Cheers, RickO

    Something doesn't look right about the color of these coins. Most of the silver that I have found in the ground comes out looking white.

    I've had several old timers tell me of bags of silver dollars found hidden in stone walls along the road side- I suspect in my area of NY state it was probably related to prohibition and rum runners. One tale was nearly 800 1878 silver dollars- all either 78-s or 78-cc. Another was close to 1000 (about 990) of dollars- all 83-S and 84-S. All coins in both hoards were wildly toned or ugly blackish/brown toned. I've seen pictures of coins from both finds- many were sold on ebay back in the early 2000's.
