$1.20 in silver, love from Dotty 07/01/2009

A gorgeous overcast 70 degree detecting day for the start of July. @#$%&!!

I was behind my desk for most of it, with an obligation at 6:00 pm, which means I did not get out detecting until 7:00 pm, way later than I would have liked.

It was worth the wait! A short hour and a half hunt in a park yielded these goodies. Started off with the 1936 dime, followed by the cool HEAVY sterling ID bracelet. "Robert" was probably in big trouble with "Dotty" when he lost it!

Next came the 1918D half, then it was quiet for a while until the 1902 Barber quarter showed up!  I kept thinking I was going to dig a silver Roosevelt dime, and then I got it, 1953D. Kept gridding the area and surprise! 1935 quarter. Kept at it for a while longer, but I had exhausted the hot spot. This was the same area that had given up a walking liberty half a few years ago and I had not been back to it with a Minelab yet. A few pieces of clad, not much, and wheats. I love days like this.

    I'm Nick A. and I am a metal detector hobbyist in Central Ohio.  I have been metal detecting for 20 years, and currently use the Minelab E-Trac detector.

    I am always happy to find silver coins (made before 1964) for my collection, as these are no longer in common circulation.
