The Yard Was Full of Silver

[Brierfield]

I drove to a small town 20 minutes from my house where I have hunted recently. The owner of a whole block in the town has let me hunt his property for the past few months, but I had never hunted the yard of his personal residence until two days ago. It turned out to be worth the wait, as I dug 4 silver Washington quarters and 2 silver Rosies. Two of the quarters were in one hole, and one of the quarters and one of the dimes were together in another hole. The 1958 quarter on the far right is in near extra fine condition. I also dug 2 of my most hated coins - 1965 Washington quarters. Those are always a real heartbreaker! LOL The V nickel is a 1910, and was nearly on top of the ground at ~1/2" depth. Also found 11 Wheaties, and assorted other stuff/clad, including a 1952 dog tag and small child's spoon (not pictured).

Thanks for viewing, and HH!

Hi ho Silver! Nice haul Brierfield. What else have you found in the block he owns?

Thanks!

The most I have found so far was this hunt at his personal residence.

I've found one other silver dime, an Indian head penny, a token and a very large skeleton key on one of the other lots.

I plan to go back later this week and hunt some more. Surely there are more targets to be found.

Howdy Brierfield--

That is what I call an excellent hunt! It's always a thrill to dig multiple silver coins in one hole! You had a great day. I hope that you have many more! Best of luck and...

Happy Hunting!
