I went metal detecting today which wasn't planned I just happen to be driving and saw a long stretch of old oak trees and an old neighborhood so of course I had to stop. I proceeded to pull out the old metal detector and take seven steps from my truck and head and 85 3 inches deep. Out pops this Beautiful silver quarter 1930s. My imagination went to 100 miles an hour and I thought I was gonna find silver for days. Needless to say that was the only silver I found for 3 hours. I am humbly back in reality.

A humbling sport this is....

I can not tell you how many times, probably six or more, that the first hole has a silver coin in it... and the next 200 holes do not! I usually give up after 8 or 10 hours and head home with my one Merc!

It's all good, I tell people that I enjoy the hunt, not the finds (lie).

Nice quarter! Congrats.

At least you found the one silver Washie, in decent shape and an older date, too. :icon_thumleft:

I have been there, done that, too. Find something cool right off the bat and then nada for the rest of the hunt. Even worse is scouting out some place you are SURE has good finds, due to its location or history or both. Then you hunt that place to death and barely find 11 cents in clad :icon_scratch:

I'm from New Orleans where all we did was drink and gamble. I've been sober for 12 years and haven't gambled sense, but I can tell you just like I tell my wife it's the closest thing to the possible "JACKPOT feeling" as you can get...AND I LOVE IT!! I metal detect just like I did with my drinking and gambling.... every chance I get!! Lol
