Ok... a quick story. My wife loves to metal detect just as much as I do..(If not more).
She has been asking if we can go to her moms house and detect the yard. And as usual
I just said "ya ya". I figured we would get there sooner or later. So yesterday I had to
go to work (I work second shift). It was 45 outsidde and my wife really wanted to go detecting.
So I said.. Go to your mothers house. Off to work I went and off to her mothers she went...
A few hours later I get a phone call with a very excited wife at the other end of the line.....

She found 8 silver quarter.... thats not a typo.... 8!
And three silver dimes.... 11 Silver total.
Once again she scores big numbers in silver.
Guess I should listen to her more.......

Heres the dates:
quarters:
1943, 1952
1941, 1942d
1954, 1956
1953, 1944

Dimes:
1962d
1954d
1946

Ya. She always seems to find the silver. I cant tell you how many times she has found Pocket spills.
She will dig a merc and rescan the hole and get 2 more and a war nickle or something. It amazes me.
She loves her ace250. I offered to get her a atpro or something in that price range and she doesnt want it. I dont blame her. Thanks for the nice words. she will be happy to see them.

The talk around the watercooler is she's gonna continue kicking your butt. :o
You might want to ask her for some pointers!
Don't remember anyone digging eight silver quarters, and posting.
Good stuff there!
