Me and my dad Shallowdigger went out this weekend to a park that we've been at for a little while. It's pretty hunted out so most of what we find anymore is old. Saturday was pretty rough for me, but my dad found his first barber dime of the year, 1905 plain. It looks like its in pretty good shape and has full liberty. Today we went back out there and my dad found the little religious medal on his 2nd dig, which we think is silver. A little while later I found my first silver quarter, 1952d :icon_thumright: , and my dad got the 39 merc about 3 feet away from me. After that we didnt find anything for a while except for a 50 wheatie, and then on the way out to the car Dad found another mercury.

Thanks for looking,
FilthyFlyer

Nice hunting guys :thumbsup:

Nice to see that you could share a detector while the silvers are popping up.
I'm sure Brett would have to pry mine from my cold dead clutches. ;D
