6 Silver Dimes, 39 Wheats!! 16 For 16 & 17 For 17!!

Hello Everyone,

I haven't posted for a while, but I've been seeing a lot of great finds by everyone on the forums. Nice job!!

I was able to get out for a couple of short hunts this week, and wouldn't you know it, I found silver on both hunts, extending my consecutive silver streak to 17 straight hunts with the SE Pro coil. I keep going back to the park that has produced the most old coins for me this year. It still hasn't let me down. I'm nearing 100 silver coin finds from this park alone this year, which amount to a little over two-fifths of my silver coin finds this year. I wish there were more parks like this around me.

For the two days, I ended up with 6 silver dimes (3 mercs - '26, '43, '44, 3 rosies - '50, '54, '64), along with 39 wheat pennies, ranging in dates from the teens to the fifties. The little pendant I found today reads, "Hollywood High School - Achieve The Honorable".

I took my PI detector to my local beaches/lagoons last week, hoping to get a little bit of gold, but all I ended up with was a bunch of crusty clad, along with a lot of rust items. Finding old coins in the turf is my favorite type of detecting, but it felt good to have a change of scenery and see my girlfriend dig a few craters in the sand with my scoop.

Thanks for looking.
Keep the Passion High!!!

On to #18...

Dan, that's a great hunt!!!

Congrats on the silver and wheats! That pendant sure looks interesting. Any idea how old it is?

Good to see you out pullin' silver. I enjoy your posts, but also your replies to other posts regarding the SE. I just got an SE and I learn a lot from them.

Hi Dan,

Yep, your silver finds just keep coming! NICE!!! I know my buddy Ron is very impressed with his new PRO coil on his SE. He's gonna be posting here on Tnet regarding his successful hunts while on vacation in Washington this past week!

Keep it up dude!

Hey thats awesome,I wish we would told everyone that the pro coil was junk,HA. HA. Congrats on a super hunt and Good luck on your next hunt.

Thanks, T-Bucket. Yeah, I think I let the cat out of the bag!! Good luck to you too!!

Hey Capt-N is that a nick I see on one of the dimes? Makes me feel better about the scratch I put on the last merc I found between two tree roots.

Yep definitely time to upgrade to the Pro Coil!

Larry, the nick on the Rosie is not man made. If you were able to look at the back of the coin, you would see more indentations caused from rocks/pebbles some time ago. Sorry, I wish I could make you feel better.

WTG Capt with your continuous silver recoveries!

Gee, I though you cleaned out that park by now. And good to see you'll still out there hitting the old parks, I was hoping someday we would be together maybe next year. First...Let me pull out my Explorer and dust her off, Haven't turned her on years.

Also, About time you started hitting the beach Smiley And what type of Pi are you using?

Keep hitting the beach Dan, Eventually you'll switch over to beach detecting and put park detecting behind you Smiley

Congrats! Paul (Ca)

Paul, is that really you? I haven't heard from you in a long time!! I'm sending you a PM!!

WTG, your SE with the pro coil just keeps finding that silvrrrrrrr.
JDD

Thanks, JDD. It's a keeper!!

Nice Silver and what great finds.

Betta eat your wheaties! Thats a bunch of them!

Jason

Thanks, Jason!! Yeah, It's been another good year for the wheaties. When you're finding silver, wheats will come by the bushels...

Nice finds. I've been toying with the idea of investing in a new detector. I've used a lot of detectors through the years and have been very happy with my Fisher CZ-5. But now it's getting a lot of mileage on it, and I hear the stories from you guys on your detectors. I'd like to try one out somewhere before I'd replace the old reliable Fisher.

Thanks, daytondigger!! No, don't change your machine, or there will be no more silver in your area for other md'ers to dig up.

WAHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOO, Dan the Man, you are killing everyone in wilver this year, but who didn't expect that to happen? Cheesy thumbsup The sky is the limit for how long you want to extend that streak. Knowing you, it will last a lifetime!

Here's to finding many more wilvers and extending that streak! occasion14

Kyle

Hey, thanks, Kyle!! Hope you, your bro, and your Uncle have a great Colonial hunt John Walter style this weekend!!! Good luck!!

Way to go Nice bunch of dimes.
Dman

Thanks, Dman!! Good luck to you!!

I think the Guinness book of world records just got a new category thanks to you.keep the streak going and you'll be counting silver in lbs not number of coins.UNREALLLLLLLL!

Thanks, eggbag!! Where did you come up with your username? I guess "EggSack" was already taken.

Wish I had a park like yours around my parts.Good stuff.Hope you find more.

Thanks, Takoda!! I wish I had another like this one too!!

Great finds.

Thanks, Ty!! I like your Avatar!!

Dan,
I don't mind waiting a long time between each of your posts, but I was expecting another movie man. What's up with that? Huh tongue3 Wink Great digs as usual Silver King.
Congrats,
Doug

Thanks, Dougalicious!!! I don't want to make any movies until my cameraman/buddy, Jon, can get a day off of work and go detecting with me. I've been going solo now for the past month. I couldn't do it without him. I know you do it by yourself, but I'd rather have someone else video tape me than me taping myself.

WTG !!! Dan on the oldies, still waiting on my new pro coil.
Hang on to that girlfriend bud, my wife of 49 years wont even go detecting with me, not even to the beach. Undecided Good luck on the next hunt. kib

Thanks, kib!! Yeah, it's very rare to have a GF/wife who wants to go out detecting with you on every hunt!! But my girl supports my addiction, and she can see the joy it brings me, so that's good!!

Dan, that's a great hunt!!! thumbsup thumbsup

Congrats on the silver and wheats! That pendant sure looks interesting. Any idea how old it is?

Good to see you out pullin' silver. I enjoy your posts, but also your replies to other posts regarding the SE. I just got an SE and I learn a lot from them. Grin

Thanks, kimsdad!! I'm not sure how old the pendant is. I would guess somewhere around the '50's time frame. I'm glad you're taking advantage of reading and learning from others posts about the operation of their machines. Take your time with the machine, and it will begin rewarding you in no time.

Roll On Dan!!! You are tearin' it up....

Keep safe...

Keith

Thanks, Keith!! Good luck to you. Stay safe in those parks you hunt!!

Another nice haul for the silver king.

Keep up the good work man.

HH Jer

Thanks, Jer! I'll keep trying. You're doing great too!!

Thanks, Neil!! Good luck on your next outing!!

Excellent job on the silver dude!!!

Thanks, DF!!

Still at it Captain, great post and dimes and whea’s to boot.

HH and thanks for posting.

Thanks, Anthony. Yep, the parks are still producing for me!! Some of those coins were just whispers in tone. Around 9.5". It still impresses me to dig so deep to make a recovery. I dug through three different dirt compositions at this place to find them.

Nice work Dan! You are going to have one big 'ol pile of silver this year, and another of wheats! You are skilled at finding both! I'll second Modern Miner's comment regarding a video........Jon, please film! Congrats on the finds Dan.

Best,
Ricardo
