    6/25 Wanted one little silver today, got the BIGGEST

    Went out today for an hour or so, it's been awhile. Scored a measly wheat cent and couple clads, was heading back to the truck when I got an odd high signal on the machine.
    Stabbed my digger into the ground about 3", cut a plug, and saw what I thought for a moment was can slaw.....wow was I suprised when I caught a glimpse of the reeded edge!
    Made my day even though the big silver was holed, what else can you do with a hunk of silver that big, but hang it as a necklace!
    Dug my first silver dollar, an 1889 Morgan, last year on June 27th. Never thought I'd dig another within a year's time. You just never know.....thanx for lookin' ffd
