Had some time to do a small amount of swinging to day. The Silver Gods have not been good to me this year so kind of just wanted out of the house. Went to a park that was close. Now I have hunted this park many times and have never found a Silver or even a Wheat Penny. Signals where kind of scarce so when the first surprise showed up with a bouncy signal I started to dig. at about 6 inch's out came a large rusty nail. Not happy put the pin pointer into the hole and got another signal in the side wall and pulled out a 42 Washington. Now happy as all get out started to hunt again and 20 feet later surprise again at 3 inch's a 56 Washington. Now I can't swing anymore just went home.
Stay Safe and Good Hunting

I hate digging up nails, but that is how I found my avatar, just like how you described yours. Congratulations! :icon_thumright:

I dig a lot of crappy signals, but you never know what will pop out

A close park with two washingtons means there's GOT to be AT LEAST two silver dimes! Grats and good luck next time out.
