Mar 2nd 2013 Digs...

[FooserPaul]

Hello all...

I hit 2 spots yesterday... The 1st one was a new spot and I gave it 90 minutes to look around and see what the site was like... Lots of fill and trash... wire, scraps or metal, and furniture nails... :-(

I then went back to the spot I murdered with my ETrac that I hit in January for the 1st time in 18 months: http://www.findmall.com/read.php?86,1844925,1844925#msg-1844925

I spent 2.5 hours here and the 1st hour was pretty quiet... a few coins... nothing old.. not even a wheat penny...

I moved towards the back left where I recovered the Walking Liberty Half in January...

I got a 1920 wheat... Then a 1944 wheat...

Then I got a dime signal @ 3"... In the plug sticking out I could see the back of a Merc... 1944

I got a few more wheat pennies... Then I got a Penny / Dime range signal... @ 5"... I popped out the plug... nothing with the pinpointer... hmm... deeper...

There it is... I popped out the dirt and the coin onto my towel... ANOTHER Walking Liberty HALF !! 1943

In the 1st 5 years of my young detecting career... I've recovered 8 Silver Half Dollars... Now I have 2 this year... I love my 3030...

Respectfully,
Paul
