todays hunt:



hey guys, got out with olddude today to the spot from the other day, I only had about 2.5-3 hrs to hunt do to family commitments today, right away I hit a 59 memorial, then a wheat, then the 3rd target was the 44p war nickel, yep, right in front of dave, sorry buddy lol!!, I wasn't planning on making a video for todays hunt so I didn't record til much later in the day, I kept swinging along and managed another couple wheats, then got a screamer at 11-50 on the etrac at 4 inches, im thinking silver quarter, I call dave over and he gets an 87, similar to silver quarter, I pop the plug, and dig a bit and there is a 61 roosie!, I was shocked, I thought itd be a quarter but that's ok, ill take it!!, a few wheats later, I get 2 more mercs, a 1935 buffalo, and another roosie, finally I pull out the video at silver #6!! another merc!! 6 silver day!!:hello2: after that I got 1 more wheat and we had to leave, man guys what a day, this was by far the best silver/old coin day ive had yet!!:headbang:

video will be up later, takes forever to upload!

Boy, you should be glad that O.D. isn't obssessive! If he were and you found that nickel in front of him, you might've been wearing an ATP home! LOL

You killed it! Nice! I'm glad for you!
