50 coin day: rang the bell on a pair of George V silver

From the land of the Bluenose...ummmmmmmm! Up! Goquickski with a full belly and work hours away.................time to go a digging. Forgoing domestic duties I headed down the Bedford Basin and tried the park again with limited success so it was off to another spot where I knew there was silver but was a rough area to hunt.<center><img src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6ce04b3127cce8e2d3f2b966500000016108AcM2bhk4ZN2"></center>

Here the thorns did a number on my legs but it paid off with this pair of bouys and a bell. Worn on the date side (1911 to 1936 was the issue of coins with his face on them) but still silver.<center><img src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6ce04b3127cce8e2d3f2c175200000016108AcM2bhk4ZN2"></center>

Having got the silver fix it was time to move on to the daily quota at a local park. Here I did the penny popping thing, the key thing and the dinkie thing and the "Mighty Mac thing". Total for the two hour outing was 2 silver George V, bell, dinkie, key, zipper dewy and 53 coins @ $1.58 <center><img src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6ce04b3127cce8e2d3f2a175400000016108AcM2bhk4ZN2"></center>

Last shift for a few days and am heading down to meet the 2 Donnies, Angus and hopefully french dave and his bilingual wonder dog Max for a few days a digging in Cape Breton!
 
Nice day Les and I have just realized that I dont offer up the sort of pics you do. I have to wirk on that. They are well done and a pleasure to behold.

Congrats, too, on the silver. It's always nice, although I haven't found much lately. I sure like to see those older Canuck coins.
 
Nice silver and I like the scenery. Weather is holding up well for you by the looks of things as well.
