Great silver and other finds!
I would like to run no disc. At a school I search but I would need a roll off dumpster for all the trash! It's bad I have to ground balance before I get onto the school grounds, no place to put the coil down that doesn't beep!

You know it's funny because I always run some kind of disc but when I found the 1883 indian head and the barber something told me to only canx out iron. I set the disc just below small iron and started digging. The silver thimble came up as a clad dime, the Chinese coins came up as bottle caps, the button as a clad quarter, the small caliber pistol bullets as pull tabs. Funny thing is I only found 1 pull tab so far. I haven't even scratched the surface at this spot. I will def let all you guys know how I make out. I'll be there tomm. GL HH

I most def will. Funny thing is all these finds were under 4 inches! The Chinese coins are what gets me going. Maybe some colonial stuff might be there.

Fletch I love American history so much, if I was to find anything colonial you would prob have to take me to the hospital! Maybe I should get one of those portable difibrillators, and I'm only 36!

Got a feeling there's a lot more silver there, especially since I have only gridded half the place. You in the market for pull tabs by any chance?, got a spackle bucket almost full from other sites.
