A couple of weeks ago I took my trusty MXT to a local park, one that I have hunted at least a hundred times. After digging some clad and many pull tabs I got a very strong signal that came up dollar. The more I waved the coil over the target the more it insisted "dollar". Using my pinpointer to locate the target I used my hands to remove approx. 1/4" of thatch and came up with a beautiful 1880 silver dollar. You could have knocked me over with a feather. I have only been in the hobby for a little over two years and to get my first silver and a silver dollar all at the same time is truly great. What a hobby!!!

Thanks for looking.
