    March 6th I found a 1942 Walking Liberty Half

    I went out for a couple hour hunt today. I started out slow only finding a wheat penny. I finished Big with a Walking Liberty Half.
    This site was really hard to dig. The ground minerals or junk was really messing up the etrac. I was lucky enough to pickup two silvers through the junk. A Rosie and the half dollar.
    Hope you guys got out and found some goodies too. HH

    That's breaking the ice big time on the silver count. Nice hunk of silver Ed!

    Yeah, I'd setup camp there for a little while too!

    While you were wasting your time with that big silver, I was pulling one wheat penny out of the ground!

    WTG on that great half, Ed!!!

    It's good to see another video from you!

    For easy rinsing out in the field, you might want to try a small contact lens solution squirt bottle that you've filled with water. You can get a pretty good water jet coming out of the tip to wash off that dirt one-handed while you film.
    God bless our veterans! Thank you for your sacrifices!
