I'm actually amazed they are in as good of shape they appear to be. Good work saving them!

Forget about the wizard of Oz! Gene is the Wizard of MD!!!! He was kind enough to take me to the area where he has had this amazing luck and I was pathetic with my CTX. I walked away with .75. These are no pocket spills! Gene is so good he can pluck a ring or coin from the trashiest places, land or Sea with his settings.

Oh Thanks Peggy,

It's more just working at all angels,back in forth, up and back, round in round, side to side, corner to corner, front to back, back to front, well you know what I mean. It's there in that mass of iron, ya just gotta find it. kinda like hide and go seek, it hides you gotta find it.

You sure are right about the salt water and silver! I had no idea that it would eat up silver like that. Is it the salt that eats them up or the grinding in the sand.....or both? Whatever, great saves!! Congrats!!!
