Found my first silver half on Friday at an old school that's been converted to apartments.
It's been pounded over the years by others and my buddy who lives there. I've never found much there but my buddy found a gold ring once. This coin is obviously bent but I could care less. We detected on a slope that I'm assuming most folks wouldnt. It was 7" deep and gave a great signal. Later I found this old toy gas truck. I think it's from the 50s. First one that has all of it's wheels. IMG_20170715_164538.jpg IMG_20170715_164605.jpg IMG_20170715_165144.jpg

Sweet Silver half !! A must-have for me one of these days. As for the slope, they are hard to walk on hard to dig on, but some folks do sit on the side of the Hills. We are all glad for little sitting spots like that. Love them pockets spills..... congratulations !!!!

Congrats on your first BIG silver!

Please don't straighten it... much cooler with the curve in it.

Best of luck to you!
