My Frist Old Silver

Well Bootyhunter and I hit a 1900 home site in a downtown area here in the south and it end up being my best day yet. I will let him tell you about his finds. I got a 1929 wheat first signal then another wheat and another wheat it was reading 12 39 at 5" I re-scanned the hole and out popped a 1907 indian in amazing condition. Then I got a a sweet 11 13 at 4" soild got a no date buffalo. Found some clad then I got a soild sweet 12 43 4" I was thinking wheat or maybe clad dime. I dug my plug stuck the Garrett in the hole it hit on the side wall and out pop a sweet 1911 barber dime my first ever!!! You have to understand in our area indians buffalo and barbers are rare. 5 yrs 3000+ coins I have dug 6 buffs 3 indians and 1 barber dime. The silver we find here are Mercs, Rosies sometimes SLQ's and Washington's. What a last 2 weeks I have had a large men's silver ring an 18k gold an diamond ring and now 3 old coins this is my best few weeks after a slump in finds HH and Merry Christmas all...
