This evening I hunted my neighbor’s yard. He had given me permission a while back but I was saving it for a day when I could not go anywhere else to hunt.
The whole neighborhood was built in the late 50’s and early 60’s so it’s not unusual for the yards to have silver coins in them. I haven’t found silver in my own yard yet but I did find a wheat cent and a silver ring. I just haven’t really hunted it.
The coins this evening were two 1964 Washington quarters, one 1962 Roosevelt dime, and one 1963 Roosevelt dime. The grand total for the day is five silver coins!
So now I am up to 17 silver coins for the year. I may still make it to 20, which is a goal I once considered impossible.
Thank you for looking.
Woo! Congrats!!
Wow, impressive find. At current prices your 20 coin goal could be worth over $120 if they are all quarters (a bit unlikely of course).
