C O L D hunt in Baltimore today with JF.
We started at 28 F and ended at 32 F. No wonder fingers and toes were cold all day.
We were out from 11:30 to 4:30.

First field we tested yielded nothing but clad, nary a wheat between us.

We moved west about 6 blocks to a field that had given me some relics last month and it did not disappoint.

JF started off the silver run with a sterling four-way cross medallion.

Not long after that I dug a vintage silver ring, though the hallmark is worn off, you can tell it's silver. IMG_20181123_204635064.webpIMG_20181123_204702224.webp.

We both managed some wheats, a couple from the 20s and then I dug a 9-inch deep key-slot escutcheon IMG_20181123_213521118.webpIMG_20181123_213532715.webp.

JF had to head home and I hung in there until the sun set behind the rooftops. A 27-28 signal on the Equinox 600 turned out to be a clad dime.
After replacing the plug I got a high tone just on the edge of the plug and from about 5 inches down a coin ball revealed a thin and small silver disk.
I popped the dirt off to read the words "HALF DIME".
This is a first for me, first half dime IMG_20181123_204358062_HDR.webpIMG_20181123_204425587_HDR.webp

Update to this post. See video of live dig.
 

Great job my Friend on the bucket lister. I have many buckets to fill. lol
 

Thanks Tommy! You may hear an AT Max chattering in the video background there. JF's headphone battery ran out and he had to switch to speaker audio.
 

I don't like having to do that. That Max is a coin killer none better.
 

I agree. JF uses the Max and he gets some incredible finds. I've never used a Garrett but would like to try one. Happy Hunting!
 

Mike,
I'll lend you the AT Pro or the Max anytime we go out so you can see how nice they are.
 

Thanks Jamie! See you at the Club meeting. Comp board is on the agenda.
