Congrats on your 1st silver, you'll always remember the exact spot you found it. Now that you've broken the barrier, more will come.

Way to go on your first silver. I like how they always surprise me when they appear and they usually are in soil that keeps them shiny too!

I remember my first like it was yesterday... you look in the hole and there is a surprisingly silver shiny circle looking back at you.

Congrats, and hopefully, many more will follow!

great job. One of my favorite things on this forum is seeing the excitement of folks finding a first. I have a terrible memory but could take you to within a few feet of where my firsts and best finds came from. Keep on making goals and knocking them off the list.
