You may remember my post from a few weeks ago about finding a Morgan Dollar in a school park. Since then I've been back a couple more times to the park ridding the general area where I found the Morgan, but with no luck.
This past weekend I had a short time to hunt and decided to not get distracted with that area and head to the far side of the park. This part of the park is near the houses and I have not checked the area as much since it's close to the powerlines and electronic dog fences. Still, I decided with a short time to hunt it was worth it to check the area.
Shortly before my time was up and detecting just outside the reach of the dog fence, I got a solid signal. At the bottom of the hole was this:
This is my first Half Dollar ever.
It brings my total of silvers for the year to 22, and 26 overall since I started detecting last year.
This is the breakdown of all the silver for those interested:
19 Dimes (15 Mercury, 3 Rosies, 1 Canadian)
3 Quarters (2 SLQs, 1 Washington)
2 War Nickels
1 Half Dollar
1 Dollar (1879 Morgan)
