    Hi Dan,

    Most of it I found at a park in Chicago with the Explorer SE and the last 110 I found at different locations with the Etrac I end up with 255 silver coins for the season which is far more than I had expected!!

    Thank you and Bryce for all the advise on the SE and the motivational videos of you finding the deep silver, It was of great help!!!

    wow!!! Congrats on a phenomenal year!

    My season is also over, I went out yesterday for a couple of hours, the windchill was in the teens, and the ground is frozen, so I must bow to the obvious that until spring, I'm done for the year.

    Congrats again on a stellar year!
