FINALLY, Some Fall Land Silver

[ScubaDetector]

Third land hunt is the charm I guess. Went to a state park to play for almost two hours. We have hit it hard and so have others. However the park is huge with a capital H. Oldest coin I have ever found in it was an 1825 large cent.

Today I played in the woods like normal and got two wheat cents next to a tree about a foot apart. I slowed down and hit the area pretty hard. Got a 53 and a 63 rosey for my efforts and a 61 house. A good day for that park.

I admit my water hunts are not normal. When I first started they were beyond abnormal. If I didn't find 4 - 6 gold rings a day I wasn't doing good. That was around the year 2004. My land hunting has always been normal since I cleaned out the park in Utah. However I am going back with the E-Trac and I hope more Barbers and another gold coin is hiding in it somewhere. Thanks for the chuckle!

I am so used to seeing a pic heavy post of all your finds. What were you swinging today?

 

[ScubaDetector]

On land I swing the E-Trac. I have a program loaded in it that is a killer on coins and leaves most the trash in the ground. Probably gold also though because it discriminates pull tabs. That is ok though. I get enough gold in the water.

The dimes and pennies were all I found. Not one piece of trash.

Nice job on the silvers Scuba. Did you feel a little off balance digging in the dirt ?

 

[Carolina Tom]

Well done SD!

I concur with Loco...welcome to how the other half lives.

I look forward to seeing your totals for the year. Hopefully you will prepare us some pics with all the loot from your dives.

Best of luck to you sir.

The problem with the dirt is I am not weightless. I can't swing very long. And that Sun Ray probe on my E-Trac is just making it too heavy. I am taking it off today and try to find where I put my Garrett PP. The E-Trac was heavy enough without it.

I am waiting a little while longer to see if Minelab comes out with a lightweight detector as good as the E-Trac. I decided against the Dirty 30.

I am waiting till I have a bit of land silver to take to the bank before I open my safe deposit box to get a picture of this years water totals. Two silver dimes is hardly enough to open it for. Hopefully I will have a bit more before I take my journey to Utah for the winter and spring.

Thanks all

Good job Scuba hopefully winter will go quick I still hunt if its over 40 degrees the ground is usually diggable. Hope you do half as well on land as you do in the drink you will be killin it.

I took my boats out of the water and winterized both. Anything I missed can wait till next year! Doubt I am stronger. Just want to keep playing as long as I can.

Thanks all. and yes I REALLY miss the water and the fun I was having.
