    4 old silvers from my German field hunts

    Great old silver finds and very cool to see the elemental breakdown. Few years ago, I pulled a tiny 1872 Prussian coin that was 22% silver which I thought was very odd, but I see the composition of one yours is close to that. Dave

    Thanks Mark. As far as research, of course I use google maps, plat books, historic map works, historic aerial programs, Sanborn fire insurance maps, image searches etc. and do a lot of cross referencing to find public sites that I feel are still promising.

    thanks Rick! yes, that walker was surrounded by junk and iron. It gave me a 97 number on my D2 so I was hoping for a half and it was. I also have wireless Grey Ghost headphones with the D2 headphone control unit plugged into it which helps hear those deep faint signals. Dave
