Got My Oldest Silver For 2008 Today

I had today off, so I got up early and pretty well hunted all day until supper, to make up for yesterdays bad weather. I was hunting an area where the druggies hang out, and found an 1899 silver quarter. I did the happy dance for a while, then continued my search. All in all, I had a pretty decent day getting old Canadian and US coins.

Here's a pic of the oldest coins......

Edmonton used to have many coal mines throughout our river valley. I am guessing that I got a tag for one of the miners. The guy never returned it to his board and was probably reported missing. The black dirt also gave up a cheap ring too.

Another good find due to some blind hogs luck!
