I was down in a little town visiting the grandmother the other day and decided to hit the local so called "WELL HUNTED" park. I had only been swinging for about two minutes when I got my first good signal. The target was about 4in down and was a mercury dime 1917-S. The next target came within 10ft and was closer to 5in deep and was a 1897 Barber dime. Before the day was through I dug a silver rosie at 4in and missed it with my plug but found it hiding in the side of the hole with the probe. I think I'll have to pay the park another visit the next time i'm down that way! 8)
