Nice finds!

I'm going to try and post again, it didn't work a minute ago....That's awesome that you found 3 silvers in the same spot on the same hunt! It would be a good idea to go back and search the whole area again and again. I'm currently working a spot that has produced silver number 3 after about 6 separate hunts, I found number 3, 1917 dime, at a spot where I know my coil has covered previously. Good luck and keep us updated if you get back there,

take care,

tb

thats awesome! it sure does feel good turning that plug and seeing your first merc in the bottom dont it? i agree with TB, go back and hit it in all metal mode. work slow and dig everything above iron.overlap your swings by at least 1/3. there is probably more silver where they came from. nicely done! ;)

Gadget, sorry you can't hunt now, but I wish I lived in Alaska - to have the chance to find some REAL gold every summer. The stuff we have in Ohio is teeny tiny little flakes, and mostly fines. You have the good stuff up there!!

Congrats on your first Mercs!! You are so right- there is nothing like seeing silver come out of a hole! Hope you find hundreds more!

Continued success & HH!
