Ive been working hard learning the Deus and Hit the same old park that I have been working for a year. Its an old park and has given up plenty of clad until today, it finally spit out a nice silver coin. I knew it was in there just had to put in the time I guess. I see a lot of people pulling nice silver on line, but for me it has not been so easy. So today is a happy day for me. The strange thing is I dug very little trash today.

Congrats on a wonderful coin - among the prettiest among US coins IMO. You must be hooked now on returning to that park for sure!

Nice solid tone about 7-8 inches down, when it came out in the plug it really sounded good, knew I had something. Broke the plug in half and got the visual of the edge.
There is really no way to describe the excitement at that moment. My first Walker.

I've been using "Garys Ultimate" for a while. I tried others but settled on this one at least for now. Its a full tone program but not as much chatter as the sifter and rings coins like Christmas Bells. It will work on anything but you will have to tweek it for more depth. Im just now getting comfortable with it so I haven't made any changes. If its not up in the Deus forum or on your group page we should put it up. I got it either out of Andy's book or tube.
