I took 5 days off from detecting to get some rest. The first site that I went to was a permission that I got a few weeks ago but forgot about, a front yard of a 1952 home. Most of the front yard was on a steep slope. Those are the ones that I do well at finding silver coins. I managed to find a 1939 Mercury dime at the top of hill and 1945 War Nickel between the curb and sidewalk. The War Nickel's VDI number was bouncing back forth between a beaver tail and a nickel reading. They do that sometimes.
I noticed a couple out in their yard across the street, so I went over to get permission to detect their yard. I found several silver coins in that yard. I looked up and saw a guy across the street at the house next door to the house that I just detected looking a me. I ran over there and before I could even ask he asked if I'd like to detect his yard. I said yes I would. I found some more silver coins in his yard.
It was getting to be around 11:00 o'clock, so I decided to call it a day. I ended up finding 7 silver coins, one huge junk ring, around $8 in clad coins (mostly quarters and nickels) and 3 wheat pennies. Yep, I was cherry picking except for the nickel/gold range.
My F75DST detector settings: 9.0, Sensitivity 85, DE Mode, 4H Tones, Disc Level 0, GB 65.
This was my 63rd hunt for the year and my silver coin total for the year now stands at 189.
