I'll start with the Fathers day hunt! My son had a gift to give me , and, he new I liked to metal detect ,so, he decided to bury my gift in the back yard!! He just had to make it difficult didn't he?
While trying to find this gift, I just happened to find a 1951 rosie!! Couldn't believe it! I knew this wasn't it cause there wasn't any plug to be seen. After a few minutes I finally saw the outlines of a plug! Sure enough it gave a LOUD 46 on the screen! Turns out to be a 1989 silver dollar!!
At least I now know what it will sound like when I find one on my own. Now for my firsts. I was hunting at the place where I found my pocket spill a few weeks ago. A short hunt a few days ago netted me a 1944 merc and a few wheaties! And the hunt last night produced my first silver quarter(S)!! The feet were dancin ! Even tho the standing liberty is a no date I don't really care. That was my first one ! The second one is a 1942 Washington. I also found a few more wheaties and a 1940 Nickel! Love this hobby! Enjoy!! HH JB
