Default Out on the town

Left early this morning to hunt the old high school. Got there and noticed that they had NO Trespassing signs at the front and rear of the ball fields. Did not go in to hunt. Went back to another old park. I used another new program and found.. 3 dimes, 3 pennies, 2 nickals, and a bunch of pop tops. Also found a silver chain marked 925 on the little tag. I think it's silver anyway. The hunt for Florida silver is finally over. The Dry spell is over. Call Guido, send in the clowns, and post it in the sky by sky writing plane. Yes and I did do the happy dance. It might not be as good as BigBills was for Dave last week, but it was a happy dance just the same. Some kid was watching me from his bike and must of thought that I had really lost it. But really I had just found it. I will try to get out to the beaches if all works out in the morning with "E". Hopefully we will get to go.Happy Hunting... Buster.....

Nice going Buster on the silver, 92.5% silver is what 925 is. Get clarification, but I don't think jewelry gets you out of the non-silver club .

Congrats on the necklace. That is fantastic news. I hope that it qualifies for getting out of the non silver club, Beale.

Oh well, I'll keep trying. The happy dance was still cool. I'll wait till I find more silver to do it again. I did find a 1900 quarter, a 1895 nickel, and a mercury dime while I was detecting back in Deleware a few years back. But I am still trying to find it big in Florida. OK Guido I'm back and still under your powers.... Buster...

Congrats! Sorry to hear about the No Trespassing signs. If you are really intersted in hunting it, I would check into it, if the school district still owns the land, then it should be open to md'ing!
