I got a call from a detecting buddy of mine the other day and asked if I wanted to hit a new site with him. The site dates from the late 1950's to around 1970's, perfect for silver! We met up with another buddy of ours and the three of us headed out to the site. With in minutes we started digging wheat cents....things were looking good! After about the first hour of hunting we all had a pouch full of pennies and silver. We made two trips to the site and with in 24 hours we dug 27 silver coins between the three of us and a load of wheats. We hit it pretty hard, but I'm sure there are lots more goodies there. In total I dug 12 silvers from the site and 32 wheat pennies. :icon_thumright: Sites like this will get you spoiled!

Congrats!!!

I'm glad I got to go. Sites that this will definitely spoil a guy!!! LOL!!! There were times it almost felt like a "planted hunt" LOL!!! we should get all the coins in a group shot and let you add it to this post!!

I am going to check out that "secret spot" I told you about and hit it for about thirty minutes or so just to see if it has potential before you guys drive all the way to it. If I find anything I'll stop and wait until you guys can get here and we'll tear it up!!!

Spoiled, yeah, you'd have to drag me away from there. 12 silver in 2 days, might be tough tp beat that.

"The Club" is nice Art!! we have maid service, a fully stocked bar(all free of course) A stretched limo that takes us to the sites, We have a staff of researchers that find our sites for us, and sends us the gps positions where every silver coin is on the site!!!
we each have our own "caddy" to carry our gear and dig our coins for us!! all we have to do is swing the machine and we find all the silver!!! Just kidding LOL!!!!

All kidding aside, are you still coming up this weekend? if not when? text me or call me you still have my number?
