I got out two days ago for two hours at a well pounded site and managed my first big silver of the year. It was real deep and must have had iron close by. Notice the rust stain on the coin. Also got a silver Rosie and three wheats. Went with three friends yesterday and I got a merc, 4 wheats, a zippo lighter and several misc. Only a couple more mild days here in MI before the cold returns. I hope to get out again soon. Also pictured is yesterdays trash.

Sweet 2 hour hunt to pull a BIG silver and a Rosie. I'm starting my forth year swinging and still looking for my first Walker. Lol

Very nice finds. I got a nice walker last year hiding on top of a big piece of aluminum foil at an old boy scout camp near Waterford MI. I was digging nickel signals hoping to find a buffalo because the place has been hammered. LOL surprise!!

Love those ground walkers. I find way too many black ones in the water there.

Congrats on the BIG silver,
Looks like a deep hole.
My nerves are killing me with the frozen ground, while all this good stuff, and banners are being dug.

Mike,

Given the amount of trash you dug the big silver is well deserved.

I know right?!?

I tried getting out this weekend but even being just that little bit north of MI, the ground was rock just 2-3 inches down.
