Nice beginning to the new year! Congratualtions.

Congrats on the silver, ,
What a difference between last year's weather and what we have seen so far. Not to be a party pooper, but we better get it while we can.

Nice start to the year Cjon.

A silver already.. :thumbsup: Congrats, you are sure starting the season great by pulling all those keepers. :occasion14:

Thanks guys, like I said, I'm just grateful to be on the board so early in the year, who said northeasterners can't detect in winter lol!

I'm kinda curious. Do you usually see your silver clumped in the dirt or do you see the silver kind of just fall out? It seems to me that every time I find a silver, the dirt sort of parts like the Red Sea did. I open the plug and if I'm deep enough, there is the silver shining up. It seems to happen even more when there's a gold ring involved. Open the plug and bang!

Just curious if it's the dirt in my area or if it's like that everywhere. :icon_scratch:

Well depending on the site I've had both things happen, sometimes the dirt seems like glue, not willing to let go of its treasure, and other times it just falls out of a seam in the dirt and bam there it is

I've been trying to remember when I had a gold ring not just reveal itself as soon as I opened the plug. Can't recall a one. :)

Interesting.
