Wink Lots of valid targets

Treasure is treasure. A lot of regular folks won't bend over to pick up a penny on the ground. Not only do WE bend over, we also will dig 15 inches for a penny! All valid targets count. Just think, 1 million pennies is $10,000 (that's what I keep telling my wife).
If you found a wheatie it is possible you will find silver sometime soon too.
Good luck with the bigger finds.
Happy hunting!

I love pennies!!!!!! Seeing that they sit in a jar, they add up in no time.

Congrats on those finds

Yeah, and so do the blisters and calluses caused by digging them. I don't know about everyone else, but I get tired of digging the darn things. 1205 of them to date and only 55 of them wheats. I can tell when I'm about to dig one most of the time by the response of my detector, but then again, not always, so you gots to dig them all! Oh well, they do add up -- I just wish the darn things were worth more!

Hey, congrats on your first wheat, Bukkdigger! Remember that where there's wheats, there's bound to be silver!

I wanna say again that I think you are right on track with your detecting. Practice and learning that machine is what really matters in the end.

I remember when I found my first Wheaties. It was in my very own back yard they were under some bricks. They were stuck together, once I got them cleaned up and saw what they were it inspired me to find more.
Good job, You will find more!
