Default Even more SILVER at the old school Sunday!

The birthday party went off without a hitch yesterday. The 2 year old got everything that make loud or annoying noises. The wife was so pleased I got to go MDing this morning before church at the old school site. Got there way before light, so I started in the dark. I found a button before light with an anchor and eagle on it. The back was gone. I hunt an area I had not hunted as of yet when the sun came out, and as you can see I found alot of clad because this area is now used as a park site. Found a shell case, and some what nots including several pull tabs. I walked back to my old sidewalk area, that has produced alot of silver and old coins. First three holes I dug were wheaties. I was criss-crossing the same area I previously hunted to get a different angle, and hit a quarter tone 6 inches deep. Dug the hole and.... Nothing. Swung over the hole and... Nothing. Dirt plug... Nothing. So I moved the dirt plug and the signal hit again right under where I had placed the dirt plug. I had missed the pinpoint by about 1 inch. So dug another hole and out comes a 1942 silver quarter. I love it when I see that flash in the hole . Found 1 more wheaty, 3 were from the 40's and the fourth was about 8 inches deep and unreadable date, but I figured it was older since it was so much deeper than the rest. Also found another button. Had a great day.

Pictures are below. a few post down.
