Video of the hunt for 200th Silver Coin for 2009 ,I DID IT

I was out at a Chicago park with GOIO,T-manfromTexas,and TreasureFiend...For a 7 hour hunt today.....
We ALL found silver....but I was one short of my 2009 goal of 200 silvers for the year........
I had found a rosie and a merc.....(See TreasureFiends newest video when he posts it)...GOIO found #207 & 208 for HIS pile...But I was one short.......I had my HD camera taking footage as well just in case I found #200.....
TreasureFiend had to get some sleep for work so we parted ways....On the way home GOIO asked if I wanted to try my luck at another place we had some luck with last year....I wanted to get that #200 so bad I could just taste it.....We stopped at yet another Chicago park closer to home.....Had hunted for about an hour
when I got a sweet silver signal....I pulled out my Creative Vado HD Camcorder and took a screenshot of my E-Trac the numbers bouncing but sounding sweet......Hope its not a Clad Quarter @5-6"....Or worse yet a memorial....(They were really sounding sweet today...I was digging wheats at 4-5" and digging mems at 6-8" :tongue3:...........
Anyway......I shut the camcorder off while I dug.....Opened the hole,,,and turned the camcorder back on I already had unplugged my headphones,and had my SunRay pinpointer ready........I scanned the plug.......Nothing ...I rescanned (as it was about a 6" deep plug)....again .....Nothing....Feeling some anxiety
I put the probe in the hole.....And it sang ...S-I-L-V-E-R........As I moved the probe it brushed the dirt away,,,,and I seen the :icon_thumright: S-H-I-N-E-Y :icon_thumleft:.... :headbang:....wHEww........what a relief...... my goal of my 200th silver satisfied ..(a 1964d Washington Quarter)..........................I got to my 100th silver,,on May 16,,GOIO was 8 ahead of me then,,It was a 1964 rosie If I recall) I don't know how many hours the first 100 took (But I know I put allot of time in),and did not start logging my hours ...Till I started on my 101st.....I have logged a total of 301 hours to find the next....100 silver.
Now I can relax and go for my other 4 goals....1000 wheats....have 881 now,,,,50 Indians....(To make a Roll)..have 44 now........40 Buffalo Nickles..(To make a Roll)...Have 15 now,,,,and 40 V nickles (To make a Roll)....Have ---25--- NOW.....Wish me Luck on them.
I will try to get my video uploaded to YouTube,,,,,(With the help of TreasureFiend)
Happy Hunting ALL

People in Chicago back in the day must have just threw coins up in the air for fun. You guys are tearing silver and old coins up. It is either 2 things, your Minelab detectors or ya'lls parks are just full of old Silver coins. I haven't found a silver coin in my park since the middle of the summer. Although I have found the Civil war relics. So I guess we are both lucky. Good video. Keep diggin.

We are not all using E-Trac's....(Accept for me ,T-Man,and GOIO,Etrac007,Lookingforseated,Kimsdad and a few others) but allot of us are using Minelabs,,,and some Whites , and a few Garrett's around here.......I know of one guy that does real well at sidewalk tear-outs with his Bounty Hunter as well...
