Yesterday was my birthday, so this weekend is all mine to detect! I went down to America today and detected a spot I detected at least 20 times with the ATPro, I couldn't wait to try the Deus. I was amazed to find these coins, many of them were quite deep, the first Merc was a full ProPointer deep.

The second Merc brings me to 250 silver coins since I started detecting in 2010. My goal for this weekend was to break 250, and I'm happy to do it with a Mercury dime!

I think you've done well - In 10 years detecting I've found about 50 silver coins - I'm not complaining ,
I have found about 125 silver rings as well .

250 silver in 5 years, your averaging 50, that's very good in my eyes. :bronzetrophy: I believe Scrappy finds that in a month :notworthy:

Thanks Rick. I might have a bunch of silver Rosies and Elizabeths, but you have the nice OLD silver that I'll never find...well, until I go to England next year mwahaha

Did you really find a golf course to check out? It would be great if it's an old one...
