Jeez, I thought my silver drought was never gonna end 
I beat the slump today...barely.
Went back to the same park as I did on the 4th of July, and same story, tons of wheats, but, the shiny is almost non-existent. I hit this place a few years ago, and got multiple silvers, so, whoever hunted it between then & now sure did a good job of cherry picking
Anyways...
Got a beat up 39 merc that looks like it was in a fire
A Sacaweja dollar coin
9 wheats - earliest 1918
About $3 in clad
I've dug about 17 or 18 wheats at this spot in 2 hunts...and only one and a half silver (you remember my last post, lol), so, not a good ratio. However, this place is huge & old, so, I think there's a few barbers in my future
P.S. - Went out with a new guy today, who I always see at my spots. He found a nice gold class ring & an Indian head. Hope he posts so you guys can check it out. Mike, if you're reading, great hunt buddy!!!
