Default Good Friday? Nope, the Best Good Friday!

It turned out to be a day full of firsts for me. In the morning I went to the local fairgrounds for two hours then it started raining but didn't last long so I went to an old abandoned farmhouse in the afternoon for two hours.
I have never found a buckle before and found two today, and I have never found a bottle opener and found two of those today. Like the buckles I found one at each site. I also found my first thimble at the old farm house.

Then I found my first ring today also at the fairgrounds, not much of a ring but its a start. It says "best friends forever."

Then the best finds, some clad and 5 wheat pennies! I only dug four last year. Then I found a 1934 mercury dime at the fairgrounds. I got my dance going then! And at the old house I found another 1942-S Mercury dime! And if that wasn't enough I found a Sterling Silver Baby spoon that says: "Rogers Sterling" "Bridal Veil" I have never dug a silver dime before only two silver nickels, and today I got two silver dimes! And I have never dug a spoon and today I got a silver one! It was a very GOOD FRIDAY!
