Today I put the big 15" x 12" elliptical coil on the 800 for the first time. I decided to try and squeeze another silver from the wooded area near the railroad bridge. Last year I found several silvers there with the ATP.

Mostly quiet afternoon but I did find a few things I missed.

Good start Louis. How many silver coins did you end up with in 2019? I only ended up with 17, but there were Spanish, Seated, Barber, Merc and Rosie dimes, and Standing Liberty and Washington quarters in that total.

😂 that would be amazing but my goal is 50 considering PGH has been pounded pretty well by everyone.

Looks like I beat you by 1 silver. I had 18 dug silvers last year. 1 half real, 1 war nickel, 6 barber dimes, 4 Mercs, 2 rosies, 1 Canadian Quarter, 2 GWs, 1 seated half. Also note I didn't go out July thru September. Believe it or not I found more silver at the coinstar than MDIng in 2019.

😂 I still stare at it sometimes and I found my avatar over 10 years ago.

This barber was up against an old tree. Everyone needs to search around big old trees. I've found some quality silver coins doing so.

I haven't found gold yet. I found a bunch of fake and sterling rings tho over the last few years.
