The Omega was :smoke:

[jim tn]

For about 30 minutes this morning, the Omega was smoking. Was on the fields by 7a this morning and worked my way down towards the furtherest willow tree. I had worked on one side of it the other morning, so decided to grid a section on the other side. The terrain in that area is a little rough with rising places and low spots. By 8a I had dug 2 high tone Memorial's and nickel reading tabs and slaw. All of a sudden I got what sounded like a big whimper with mixed tones and readings of 70's to 88/89. Circled the 6-7" diameter spot and kept hearing the same whimper with same mixed tones and readings. Thought maybe a deep crushed can, but those different tones and readings weren't like any deep can I had dug on this spot. So, as the old saying goes, "when in doubt, dig." So, I did. Dug a pretty healthy size hole and checked the clod. Got a high and mid tone. Used the pin pointer and popped a 59d Washington. Again with the pin pointer, found the 45d Wheat and 62 nickel. Re-scanned the hole and got another small whimper just off to the side. That was the 45 Washington. Finally one of the 3 or 4 coin spills I have found on this field turned out to have some silver in it. About ten minutes later I got a classic silver dime reading for the Omega, 85/86, showing 4" and recovered the dinged Mercury, a 42s. My 2nd Mercury came a few minutes later, a 41. By 8:30, all within a half hour, I dug 4 silvers and a wheat cent. Besides a few more high tone Memorial cents, and 2 pieces of clad, I did get part of some sort of gold plated jewelry, over the next hour and a half. I don't have to many 4 silver outings, anymore. 11" coil, sen 99, disc 1, d3 tones and g b of 58. HH jim tn

Solly, the Omega is a sweet machine. Hits hard on silver. That's all I am going to say.
