WOW Ron ~ very impressive finds! What a great year! I'm honored to say that I was with you when you found a lot of these treasures! We hunted a lot together this year and we pulled out some great treasures!

I'm know you dug more than 400 wheats! I dug over 500 myself ~ I'm sure you dug at least that many ~ probably more!

I hope 2009 is a great year too!

Ron, I couldn't have said it any better. Enjoyed each and every hunt we were on, from Florence
to Corvalis and everywhere in between. I'm quite a bit short on the wheats but still had a ball.
Congrats on a great year, hope '09 is as good or better. Gold Nuggets :icon_jokercolor:

Wow, Ron, that Morgan Dollar stands out like a sore thumb amongst all your silver!! ;D

What a great year you had....and you've got the right machines for digging deep silver!! :thumbsup:

I enjoyed all your posts in '08. Surprising you didn't get an SLQ after finding 4 barber quarters. :icon_scratch:

Great jewelry finds, and you dug quite the load of clad too....so did I; I just haven't cleaned/counted mine yet.

Hope you have a great '09!! Let's see some seated....I know it's tough for your area, just as it is mine. I've only got 2 seated in 2 years of detecting.

HH,
