Went to the old reliable fairgrounds this afternoon, and thought I would concentrate strictly on deep signals and ignore all others. Its kinda tough to do this as there is so much clad there and the temptation to dig is a hard one to resist! I wasn't too long before I got a hard signal that was deep, came up with a nice 1936 Merc for my reward, gotta love silver! That gave me the will power to keep searchin for those deepies. Soon I got a strange signal that was deep and sorta read as a penny. I was really getting some strange reads on this coin so I figuired what the heck I'll give it a dig. About 7 inches down I pinpoint a wheatie that had been folded in half! looked like a mini taco! lol I started poppin one wheatie after the other ended up with 7 of those boogers. Just before I was ready to go home and make dinner I got a real strange hit that was trying to say it was silver, but I could tell there was something else near and was 2 different objects very close to each other. I decided to see what it was and proceeded to dig, I got a real nice canadian silver dime 1935 and found it laying right beside an old muffler clamp! Gotta love how that procoil on that SE can seperate targets like that.

Nice hunt, Jack. Love the silver. Glad to see you're getting the deepies.

Way to dig em Jack. The more old stuff you find the more jealous I get! Looks like we are going to have to call you DA MAN!
 

Very pretty merc!

Good luck,
HH.
 

Gotta love that procoil!
like the merc, found a '35 this week too.
Oh, and for the record, it is not just a wheat taco, it a whole wheat taco!

I think I can make out 1922? LOL! I don't think I ever asked you what year that wheat was the other day you found with me. I think you said it was in the 20's but hadn't cleaned it yet. By the way, did you get the pocket watch running? Since you gotta go back to work, just let me know if you want me to finish up that one-room schoolhouse yard for ya! :icon_jokercolor:
