Got out with the Captain one last time this morning before the Silver Bandit retreats back south across the Mason-Dixon line... Hit an old school in a new local town that had a ball field on the 1949 aerial maps... It was slow going at first but I moved to behind second base and started pulling some deep wheats. Everything was deep where I was digging... After a bit, I pulled out over half of a mercury dime! tried hard to find the other part... No luck... Later I pulled a nice 1926 D merc! On the way back to the car, I pulled a 1948 rosie!

Also pulled 18 more wheats, over $4 in clad, and a few trinkets!

It was a great end to a great digging vacation!

Looks like 2 and 2/3rds silvers to me...Jamflicker counts his mower cut silvers as wholes, so I guess you can too...nice digs today in rough conditions! Congrats on a very successful summer silver tour, have a safe trip home, and I'll see you in December for the winter silver tour...
