Last weekend I dug out 3 silver dimes from this baseball field. Today I was hoping to get at least one more. I actually had probably the best day for silver quantity in 3 or 4 years! I dug out 6 silver coins!
Right after turning on my machine I hit a very shallow 1958 silver quarter within the first 5 minutes! I spent the next 5 hours in this field and dug out 5 silver dimes at various depths. ...from one inch to 7 inches.
A major milestone was made today! I dug up my 600th mercury dime!
It was a little unusual that no wheat pennies were dug today:icon_scratch: ...Thst's OK, ..I'll take a silver any day!

While hunting today a bunch on Chinese guys came by carrying a long dragon! ...that was a little strange>>:icon_scratch:

Congrats on your 600th Merc CHF. I still say those Fisher CZ models are silver sniffing detectors. I still use my Fisher CZ 5 in a lot of places, and do very well with it.

I keep going back to it. I've tried several other makes and models. These older analogs just seem to lock on targets better.

Excellent scouting to score those silver's. 600 Mercury dimes is just amazing. Dragon practice is a cool bonus. Great hunt with the older tech. Love it.

Wow, I need to move! I don't think I've found 600 silvers since 2010! LOL

Huge congrats on all of yours, and still pulling silvers!
