It Read "C" Size, Quarter At About 5" So I Dug It And I Started The DANCE! (long)

Great day, sunny and above zero! It was a Go......My buddy and I headed to an old picnic site, hoping to find that elusive silver.

Here's yours truly And here's an old picnic table. This is all overgrown now.

A nice area indeed! Lots of moose and deer tracks, still snow on the ground and some moose poop!

After about an hours worth of time into the hunt, I got a bell tone ring, "C" size object at about 5 inches. So, I dug it, and out came a wallet. And some nice coins came with it too.

Here's what the wallet looked like cleaned up a bit.

And here are the coins that were in the wallet, including 3 coins.

Here's all the finds from today. Below are a couple of more silver I managed to get. So a great day it was. Good company, good food and some nice loot!

Sweet finds.

Interesting to see that foreign coinage. A $1 Morgan dollar 1901 was found last Saturday on a club hunt in Calgary,

There are advantages to circulating Ameri-buck coins, they don't cost us anything to mint.

The dates of the coins in that wallet give you an idea of when that wallet was lost. 1950-60s??? Amazing how it still looks so nice.
