Roscue2's first silver coin!!!:detecting::super: ( oh, yeah, and Dad found a silver coin too:rolleyes:)

[Roscue2]

Went to the housing complex we had been hunting this year. I decided to give the playground behind it a try, while Dad finished the last front yard. I was doing pretty good and was moving towards the next slide when all of a sudden I got a solid signal for a nickel at about 4 inches down. As soon as I pulled that nickel out of the ground I knew it wasn't an ordinary nickel. It was just too shiny. It was a 1943-P War Nickel!!! Finally after two yrs. I had found my 1st silver coin!!!

Me:
$7.27
3 wheaties( 1942, 1944,1950)

Congrats to you and your dad Roscue2 !! Hearing your great news makes me wanna go now.
I know that feeling. Found my 1st silver 30 years ago, and I'm still stoked!
A lot of us just can't get out there right now, with this chitty weather. It sure is great to read about someone having success! Thanks for sharing.
