I had close to 2 hours before all the rain hit... AGAIN. I hate hunting in muck but I know I will have limited hunt time this year as compared to last. I hit my same beat to death site to try and scare some wheaties or silver out of the ground. Sometimes this site won't even give up a wheatie in 3 hours ...but other times I pop a couple out. I hit a section that I can never hunt...mainly because even IF you get a signal...you can't dig it anyway because it's like concrete.
It truly turns to pretty much cement all through summer because it's a gravel/sand/dirt/muck soil combo that hardens to cement....nice huh? 
Anyway...it was diggable because of all the rain...which just won't stop. Signals were almost non existent...and when I got one...it was DEEP ...and a one way hit.
I have to be honest...even if I hadn't of popped out the 2 silvers...I would still have posted the 2 wheaties by themselves. Why??..because they were BOTH an honest 10" down and I did measure both. I have never found two coins from that depth before in the same hunt. Heck I think I've found only two 10" deep coins my whole life...and they were both last year. The 2 silvers came in the last 45 minutes of the 2 hours... and the merc came from an honest 9" ..and the Roosey came from an honest 8". In two hours I dug ONLY these 4 coins...but NO BULL...they came from a combined depth of 37" for the four. 10"...10"...9"...8". I will take a hunt like that any day of the week.
I know 2 silvers and two wheaties are not much to brag about to most of you...but man were they deep...and I was amazed at the depth of the 4 coins.
