I have a Garrett AT Pro that I love and my Garrett ProPointer makes the recovery easy. Here is my question/complaint. I just got started detecting this year. First trip out was in April of this year in Connecticut. I have access to some old properties and of course I hit the local beaches and schools. I have found and redeemed $375.00 in clad coinage so far. I find lots of stuff. I found a silver Washington quarter next door and a 1929 Merc dime acrioss the street. I have a 1901 Barber dime and a 1908 S Barber quarter as well as a 1936 V nickel. I find LOTS of clad and I hate to complain. I just want to know why silver is so scarce and I never find jewelry. I get nickels and pull tabs and an occasional sterling ring but never an Indian Head or a Walking Liberty or anything like that. Man... I dream about finding thise coins. Am I going too fast? This machine finds Memorials at a foot deep..... Why not Indian heads? Sorry to whine but I just wondered if anybody has any suggestions. Thanks in advance for the help
