Well, I finally found my first silver coin Saturday, June 11...and my second, and my third...all in the same hole, and all 1942. Also had a crusty Jefferson nickel in the hole. Fun times!!!

I witnessed this dig in person!
It was epic!
Wish someone had a Go Pro that day.
Congratulations Clad Slad (Silver Slad)!

The first silver coin you found was with two more, that's lucky!

Now, check those 1942's and see if there is a 1 under the 2...if so, you're on fire!

Grats to ya!

Thanks, xr7ator! I checked, but none of them are the 1942/1 variant. That would have been amazing! I'm still pretty happy, though. :hello2:
