39 For 39!! 5 More For #300!!

[Captn SE]

Hello My Friends!!

My consecutive hunt silver streak with my SE Pro coil is still alive! Today, I went on my 39th turf hunt since the end of June with my Pro coil. Guess where I went? Of course, the "silver park". I went to an area I had detected twice before, and couldn't believe there were still a good amount of deep signals left to be analyzed and recovered. I ended my half day hunt with 4 silver dimes, along with 21 wheaties. I was thinking earlier this morning that if I could get just one silver and a few wheats out of this area, I'd be really satisfied. The area is small; approx. 30' x 40'. Most of the deepies were around 6-8" in very trashy ground. With the 4 silvers today, along with 2 Rosies I found on Monday, I have recovered 168 silver coins this year from the "silver park". This is an accomplishment I know I will never match for the rest of my life. And the year is not over yet. I have 5 more silver coins to go til I reach my 300 milestone for the year, and you bet I will try very hard to find them at the "silver park". No reason to go anywhere else.

On to consecutive silver hunt #40 next week!

Thanks for looking!!
Keep The Passion High!!

I would guard that spot with a shotgun. I would name it my own personal SILVER STOCKADE. You are kicking some serious Glute out there my man.

Way to go Dan!
300! I don't know if I am more jealous of the number of silvers, or you tellin' me that while I'm hunting 37degrees you are hunting in 70's!

Keep the streak alive! Congrats in a big way.

what a farm, so do you just water them once a week? With as many as you have found there, the ground must be well fertilized!

Our Roman Bronze target was 300 & at one stage we thought we would never make it, now we are just short of 400. So you should aim for 350 this year

i have never heard of a park that has giving up that much silver in this day in age but keep it up

Thanks, Pipster! I had some really great producing parks around me last year. Some produced upward of 60 silver for me, but I never spent a consistent 4 months at them like I have at this park this year. And I know those other parks won't produce like this one has.

Good lord man, no wonder you have a flame for an avatar - you are on FIRE!!

Thanks, Anthony! I'm having another good year, thanks to this park.

Thanks, Chris! Hey, this park is free for anyone to detect. I know it's going to take an expert hunter to find these coins. They're not just sitting on top of the ground. A few of my buddies don't have a very good history at this park in terms of finding the oldies, so they end up going to other producing parks. I'm not complaining....they have left most of the finds for me.

Way to go Dan!

Thanks, Mark. We all have to accept the conditions that each of our locations, including the weather, gives us. Some just have better weather to hunt in than others.
Good luck at your fairgrounds!!

Thanks, Seger98! That was funny! Actually, we've been in a drought all Summer. Those silvers are bone dry, but come out looking shiny. And there's no need to fertilize dry ground...that's why there's very little oxidation on them.

Thanks, Crusader! You really exceeded your expectations for Roman Bronze this year. Actually, your whole year (you and Cru'Dad) was very monumental and memorable. Since I far exceeded my expectations for this "silver park" this year(silver totals and consecutive silver hunts), I'm not going to press my luck and shoot for any more goals.


Thanks again, everyone!! Keep The Passion High!!

Tell the truth..."silver park" is actually "The Mint"

Seems like it, huh?? It's just a great producing park for the oldies, and a park many detectorists have given up on years ago. The trash layer, along with the ground interference will give the non-patient and less capable detectorists fits!

Thanks, jgas!! I'll be trying for #40 there next week. We have a chance at some measurable rain over the weekend. I hope the ground get saturated a little more. That would be ideal.

Good luck to you!

way to go on that sweet silver...what happened to the wheatie in the top left hand corner??

 

[Goio]

Great job Dan!! you will hit and pass the 300 mark in no time. Congrats!

 

[JerV3]

Nice finds Capt,

300 is alot of silvers man. Location is everything and you have the spots. Oh yeah by the way it doesn't hurt to have a top notch unit and know it real well.

That must be one sweet feeling to know you found over $270.00 dollars in silver melt value alone. (figure is estimated by .90 cents per dime x 300) I think I have dug 5 silvers around here this year maybe a little more.

Keep @ it and HH!!

 

[Happy Harry]

Terriffic!!! I am still looking for my first Merc. HHHH

 

[quaidmon]

Congrats on the silver. That is one great park. My silver total this year is only about 290 less than yours.

 

[brad dfx]

that is great! what a accomplishment

 

[Detectingfreak]

Thats awesome! Keep up the detecting!!!! Love to see your posts as always!

 

[t-bucket]

[TreasurdiggrNY]

Thanks, Allen. The wheatie got clipped by a lawnmower. It happens all the time here in S. CA. with the weekly grass cutting.

Great job Dan!! thumbsup you will hit and pass the 300 mark in no time. Congrats!

Thanks, Goio!! Yeah, I should pass the milestone soon. After that, there's nothing left to accomplish.

HH Jer

Thanks, Jer! I sure do have the spots, but every other guy down here has the same spots as me, with the same machine. They just don't hunt as much as I do. One of my buddies has around 225 silver for the year. He's been hunting different parks in S. CA, and doing very well. My md'ing buddy that's closest to him has under 100 silvers.

That must be one sweet feeling to know you found over $270.00 dollars in silver melt value alone. Shocked (figure is estimated by .90 cents per dime x 300) I think I have dug 5 silvers around here this year maybe a little more. Roll Eyes

Keep @ it and HH!! Grin

Thanks, MUD! Actually, I like the idea that I have found over 6 pounds of silver coins in the past 21 months better.
