Hello all hope your all out swinging in this great weather
Had an hour before sunset yesterday and I'm hunting somewhere !!
I stopped at a small park with a lake it's been there forever I decided to hunt the woods about 100 feet in from the shoreline Not trashy got a few signals clad dimes then a few wheats
Behind a big ole tree I get a solid 92 on my teknetics gamma 6000 any way I scanned it
I know a quarter is 88-89 all day I figured it as a coin because of the small target and constant tone and numbers I dig it and out pops my first walking liberty half. 1943
I guess there is some stuff left in there ! It's an easy site park the car and your hunting
I will make this my new fast hunt site. Thanks for looking HH gl. Eastcoast image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg

Congrats on the first LHD it looks like it's in fine shape. Got to really love a little spot where one can grab a quick hunt and it produces something each time.

Big congrats on the big silver. There's nothing like those firsts in any category, but when it comes to firsts on big silver it's a whole new ball game. Found my first seated half dollar and first 2 reales a couple of years ago and I'm still dancing.Way to go!

Beautiful coin,, I have been very lucky with half dollars this year. I still get a happy feeling everytime I find one. This year I dug my first Barber Half.
Congrats.
