    Hello everyone,
    This morning, I did a very quick 2-hour dirt fishing hunt at a local park.
    I have so many things to do today so I kept the trip short.
    No silver coin finds today :yack:

    These were my finds..

    4 Wheats Cents - One of them is a 1909

    Great finds for a 2 hour trip. Too bad you didn’t find silver but it will be there the next time you go back. :)

    I am continually amazed about what you find on your dirt digging trips.

    Can you tell if the host coin for the elongated cent is an Indian or a Lincoln?

    Finding an 09 Lincoln is pretty cool.
