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>
