Default Lots o' huntin nets coins, silver, rings.

Got out on Saturday and Sunday - mostly went after clad, but wound up with some other nice stuff too. Total for the weekend was 232 coins worth $19.83, which includes 7 wheats, two older nickels (1940 & 52), and a nice 1963 Canadian silver quarter. The quarter was the last target I dug all weekend. Also snagged two small silver rings - they are kind of junky but I'll take 'em anyday.

The 1940 nickel is a little irksome; I've dug several this old now but still no Buff! I guess that will be my goal for next year.

Happy hunting...

Actually those silver rings look kind of neat and I always liked the Canadian Quarters, especially the silver ones. Is that a number 16 just to the left of the 925 on the ring to the left?
