Last hunt of the year, Spanish silver saves the day!

[Steve in PA]

I have been waiting for over a month for a weekend day that I could get out and swing the detector. We have had a pattern of nice weather during the week when I'm working, and crappy weather on the weekend when I'm off. This weekend looked like more of the same, but it stopped raining around noon on Sunday, and I was able to get out to a couple sites. Spent two hours at the first place and didn't find a thing. A lot of standing water in the fields and holes filling up with water as you dug. I hightailed it over to another place while there was still a couple hours of daylight left. Wasn't finding much there either, just a couple little flat buttons and small musket balls when I got a sweet steady 66 on the F75. In this field that usually means half real, and that's exactly what it was. Not the most beautiful one I have ever dug, but it has a nice readable date 1787.
