Default ...and then the silver dimes showed up...

I have been in 7th heaven the past few days as silver quarters had actually outnumbered the silver dimes I'd found in the little park here in town since friday. I went for 3 1/2 hours after supper....and the dimes have evened up the score a bit. The 1962 was only 2 inches deep, while the rest were at 5-6 inches.

I'm lovin' your old 6000 DI Pro, Greg. It's a silver magnet. I got some new cheezy headphones today.....and just had to try them out you know.

Obsessive/Compulsive?.......You've got to be kidding......me?

I'm going to have to give it a rest for a few days....cuz I have 3 fingers on my right hand that are just screamin'.....deep joint pain. Think I'll go take a couple Advil and drink some coffee.

Just think how much quicker I'd have gotten the 100 silver coins had the park not been "off limits" last fall. I've put 18 pieces of silver in my pouch in 5 days. In addition to the silver I found....I bought a Peace Dollar, a Franklin, and a Walker with the clad I've found since then. Once the coins are in the pouch...they don't care if they were dug or not. I have collected just shy of 20 troy ounces of silver coinage since starting into this hobby again last fall.

There's no better hobby on the planet.

Happy hunting all......

Wyatt

Glad your liking my 6000 di pro
I found over 50 Indian head pennies and lots of silver with it and when it says quarter...well you know
I also loved the analog display.

Hey lets get together sometime soon, I'll buy lunch or breakfast.

Sure.......I'd love to. There's still silver waiting in the place i've been working. There's actually 2 adjacent properties.....the park, and the church property, which also had a little league field. In all there's about 5 acres of lawn....and to boot I have permission to hunt there.

Give me a call sometime. I'm not using email....unless it's through the forum. Too much spam...the spammers win....I give up.
