With all your help and Bryces coin program in Andy's Sabisch book and the book itself had a great first day in my eyes. First rings..one silver another not real sure about and tons of clad. Alot of close silver dates but new park tomorrow they plowed under..was an old park so might have some better silver coin luck there. Oh and a cool button.!!

Thanks again everyone..loving this SE PRO

Nice finds!! I gotta feeling this is just the beginning of your silver digging career with the SE!! Good Luck

Nice ring! I am sure some silver coins will be turning up for you real soon. HH

Very nice rings and a nice haul of money to boot.

If its a plowed or a filled over area gooooo slow (go slow regardless LOL with a Exp.).
I have hit so so many places similar. Just my last two days of hunting have fill/plow over the whole front yard slopped area and there is such a mix of depth on coins.

Blasphemy!! You had to BUY a silver coin?!? Something tells me you won't have to worry about buying silver coins in the near future. It looks like you have picked up on the SE's language pretty quick! Nice job!

Congratulations! That is an excellent first day for sure. Looks like you and your new machine will be getting on just fine. The Se Pro is a great machine and I am sure you will find countless awesome things with it. Thanks for sharing and HH -Marc

Here's the link to my field test post containing over 60 different hunts of various coil tests...comparisons...nicer finds...etc..:
http://www.findmall.com/read.php?19,1055627,1055627#msg-1055627

Been swingin' the coil since 1972
Started out in 1972 with a Jetco Detector...then the late 70's with a Whites 6000....then in 1981 went to a Bounty Hunter VLF TR 840...then in the early 1980's I went to a Whites 6000 Di Pro...mid 80's I went to a Whites Eagle II SL...Late 80's/Early 90's I went to the Whites XLT...1990's I used the Fisher CZ5, CZ6, CZ7, 7aPro, and CZ70Pro...Started using Minelabs in 1999
with a brief stint on the Musketeer while also using the CZ's...then in 2002 I switched to the Minelab Explorers and currently use an Explorer 2, SE, SEPro, and E-trac with an arsenal of coils

Here's the story of my BEST FIND EVER.:
http://www.findmall.com/read.php?19,876944,876944#msg-876944

"Metal detecting is an escape for me and allows me to find some much needed peace and solace.
Being able to clear my head...even if only for that short while...is much more meaningful than any amount of finds that end up in my pouch" "Quote ME"

Congrats Mike on a very productive hunt. May there be many more to come.

Looks like your picking it up quick! Nice job!
