Default A SILVER day in Arkansas!!!

I have been noticing an old rundown church out in the country on my way to work every morning. So today, finished early, and stopped by the church on the way home. Got out of the truck and walked around to the passenger side, pulled my detector out and hit a Wheaty right at my door. Picked it up, sweeped the hole, another Wheaty, picked it up sweeped the hole, dug 2 mor inches and out comes this 1941 Quarter. All same hole!! Walked 3 steps, another hit, and out comes a 1964 silver Roosie. Picked up 3 more wheaty's, some memorials, a 1959 nickle, and 2 dimes. Hunted a total of 45 minutes. Needless to say I will return!!

Oh by the way, my little cheap detector picked up 4 of the coins over 6 inches deep, one, a 1924 Wheaty at 9 inches with the sniper coin on. So for those who worry their detector isn't good enough, my Ace 250 say's "Ha!"

The Ace is a lot of detector for the money. The Sniper has proven to be a great addition to it! WTG!!
