Midwest Diggers News — silver coins

Had a blast at a seeded hunt put on near Topeka Kansas by the Topeka Treasure Hunters Club.  This hunt is put on every year around the end of may and has about 100 people going for treasure, Nate the Digger didn't do to bad with a real nice 105 coin haul that included over 50 silver coins!  Can't wait until next year!

Went out for a weeks long treasure hunt and Bruce the Digger landed something he has never found in over 30 years of Treasure Hunting, a nice shiny 1900-s Silver Dollar! Found at a old park near Beatrice, Nebraska.  This nice old coin was also only 3 inches deep!  It might be a find of a lifetime.... for now anyway.

Decided to try a state park about 1 hour north of Lincoln and ended up doing quite well for the clad, approximately 150 coins or so, but no silver on this trip.  Quite a few early 1970's coins and some late 1960's but no silver.  The picture below is all of the clad that we found.

Good weekday hunt, found 60 items, 58 coins, 7 quarters, 9 dimes, 2 wheaties 1946 & 1953, 1 canadian, 39 memorials, 1 really cool pocket knife and 1 awesome token badge.  This was a park south of lincoln and the wheaties where only down about 1/2" to 1" deep so we know there might be some silver there, just need to go back out and find it!
