I never thought I'd find a troy oz silver coin! I was at my old high school and I got a solid 95-96 signal on the AT-Pro. It came out of the plug sideways, so I didn't know what I was looking at...then I cleaned it off and: BAM!!!!!!!!!

My largest silver coin! and my first Foreign silver, as well. Pity I didn't get an "in situ" photo, cause that was a wide rim! Here it is all cleaned up.....

Holy sheeze that must have been a big coin. I've found an 8-R and 5-Franc silvers but they only weighed in at ~3/4 oz! Congrats. That's a once in a lifetime monster
