Default Last hunt of January

Got out with a friend for a few hours. Been sick for the past week with a severe sinus infection. Number one objective was to find some silver as this was the last hunt of the month. My buddy found 2 silver dimes and rubbed it in. I was shut out on silver for the day (and the month). Ended up finding 5 quarters, 9 dimes, 2 nickels - 1 American, 1 from Panama, and 19 pennies. 2 Wheaties - 50 and 57. Thanks for looking.

Totals for 2009

124 Quarters
193 Dimes
35 Nickels
132 Pennies

No Gold, No Silver! Those will be February's goals.

Certainly not a bad start for 2009. Hope you find that silver and gold in February.

The Panamanian nickel is completely cool! What an interesting find.

Good digging and I like that Panamanian nickel too.. Nice total for the year considering I've dug absolutely zero with all this frozen ground here..
