in Metal Detecting
Had about 3.5 hours yesterday to hit the Silver Spot. Somehow it keeps producing. The first 5 coins were three mercs (first coin was a merc!), a buffalo nickel and a wheat cent. Ended with 9 silver coins, and surprisingly, no jewelry to note.

Some of these silvers are a whole different kind of toast... sort of corroded. But they're still silver!

5 Mercs
1 Roosevelt
2 Washington Quarters
1 1926 SLQ

Also got two Buffalo nickels

Surprised the SLQ actually had a date on it.

    Looks like the Washington quarters don't have any metal missing and will clean up nicely.

    I guess the only way that you aren't going to be finding silver is to leave the country and not take your metal detector. image Nice finds on the return.

    Kept thinking that I'd find some kind of medieval coin around one of the castles while sightseeing. But unfortunately that didn't happen. Only saw a couple of modern Euro one cent coins. It really got the blood pumping hearing about sites that date to the 1100s or 1200s. Rekindled an interest in making a trek to England one of these years.

    Nice silver group..... and a dated SLQ - cool. Yeah, MD'ing Europe would be great fun....England would be good, much of Europe though, has laws that prevent/limit the activity. Cheers, RickO
