For my second full year of detecting (3rd overall) and 2nd with Etrac, I had a pretty good year. I didn't get out very much in the May-July window due to health reasons and surgery. 2010, I got most my silver in Jan-May. It seems in 2011 most my silver came Aug-Dec...

One other notable find which I will bring to DP' Bob's Gamble-a-thon on 1/8 is a copper culture piece I found but have not posted...
