Man! My BH Tracker has been killing it on Wheaties! got 5 yesterday and today I found 7 and my first silver coin...1961 Roosey! Along with this find were a couple pendants which I cannot identify. Can you?. A metal tube, old washer, and some old part to something were the keepers. This week has been fantastic on finds for me. 004.JPG

:icon_flower::blob6::blob3::blob5::icon_flower: Totally cool assortment of finds & big congrats on your first silver! :hello2: :icon_thumright:

My BH Tracker IV loves to find silver & gold just as much as the classier detectors! You'll be digging more silver - and soon also gold! My best silver & gold has been dug in real trashy areas full of old iron & other crud - ugly areas that earlier detectorists ignored for easier digs! What they left is my silver & my gold, ha-ha-ha! Have Fun! Andi

I remember finding my first silver coin. It really gets the heart pumping. Now you'll be hooked. Good luck on the rest of your hunts.

Congratulations!

Congrats.
The Tracker IV is a great coin shooter. I found hundreds of coins with mine including 4 silvers and two gold and silver rings.
Best 30 bucks I ever spent.

Congrats on your first and may there be many, many more.

Congrats on your first silver! May there be MANY more! Just an interesting tidbit, my very first silver was also a 1961 Rosie, that I still have. Continued success to you.

Congrats on your first silver! Nice! Got to love the way silver comes out of the ground shinny!

That pipe thing across the top looks part of a wind chime.

Congrats on your first silver!! My first silver anything was a silver ring, and then my first silver coin was a '54 Rosie in a VERY small, postage-stamp sized yard in an old part of our town. That small yard coughed up THREE firsts for me..Rosie, Merc and an IH Cent. That is why I absolutely love this hobby..that feeling or rush you get finding silver, or for that matter..anything nice or unexpected, still exists. Congrats, and here's to many more..ddf
