7 Silvers, 33 Wheats!! 37 For 37!!

[Captn SE]

Hello Everyone!!

I was very shocked and saddened after hearing the news that a fellow CA md'ing buddy had passed away last Friday. Matt was only 42 years young, and had 3 beautiful daughters(ages 10, 8, and 6), and a lovely wife. It was very unexpected and sudden (maybe a stroke or heart attack; I'm not sure yet). We never know when our time will come, so we better make the most of each day.

I decided on a short hunt this morning at the "silver park". As luck would have it, the park was still producing for me. I was fortunate to be able to hunt the park 3 times this week. I found 3 Mercury dimes, along with 10 wheats today. On Tuesday at the park, I found 2 Mercs, 1 Rosie, and 7 wheats, while on Monday, I ended up with 1 Rosie and 16 wheats. Total time for the 3 days of hunting was around 12 hours. A lot of deep clad was found at this park too. This park has some of the deepest clad of any park I've hunted.

This park has surpassed my expectations this year by a long shot. I don't think I will ever find another park like it. I've been counting my consecutive silver hunts (now at 37) since purchasing my new Pro coil back in June, but in actuality, I have not been skunked at the"silver park" this whole year(over 60 trips). The only uncertainty is how many silver coins will I end up with by the year's end. The "silver park" will forever be at the top of my Park Hall of Fame list!

Thanks for looking!
Keep The Passion High!

When you get to 56, you should change your name to DiMaggio! Who needs a silver farm when you've got a park like that!?

Hi Dan,

That's sad news about your friend.

Congrat's on your continued silver finds ~ that has got to be one of the best parks in the country!

You ever study your Merc to Rosie ratio? I'm sure that I've dug more Mercs than Rosie dimes, but I'm not sure if it's quite a 2 to 1 ratio.

Keep up the good work!

Dan,
Sorry to hear about your detecting buddy Matt. You're right though as far as never knowing when your time comes. I lost my Dad last year, hit by a car only 15 minutes after we had gone out to dinner. The things you wish you could have said to a person if you only knew, right.
Rest in peace Matt. I feel sorry for his family.

Congrats on your silver streak Big Dan. I was out in Cali last week and reseeded the Mercs in the parks for you.

You never know when your time is up my friend. You will go on i'm sure with a heavy heart. The best thing you can do is honor Matt by going out and doing what both of you love doing. You scored with all those silvers as usual take care Dan.

checked it out.
New Penney someone threw back in the hole.

Thanks, RodgerDodger!! If you have gophers in your area, they are responsible also for making newer coins drop deeper, and for also making older coins more shallow.

Sorry about your buddy, Dan. That's a darn shame about his family.....

What a nice shiny group of silvers! I don't know what I'd do if I ever found a spot that I could make produce like you do that park.... Gongrats!!

Thanks, Neil! Hey, you would do exactly like I'm doing...trying to find 'em all! Good luck to you too!

Thanks, KansasCoinHunter!! I'm sure Matt shook hands with Hank already, and he's probably got a handful of Seateds and Barbers by now.

When you get to 56, you should change your name to DiMaggio! Who needs a silver farm when you've got a park like that!?

Thanks, Henry. I know I've already passed 56....I just started counting my streak since purchasing the Pro Coil in June. I haven't been skunked from the "silver park" all year(over 60 hunts). So technically I've surpassed the Great DiMaggio, but it's not official.

Nice streak you've got going Dan...Sorry to hear about Matt,your right,life is too short sometimes...Hey! I got spoiled on some of your early videos Dan ,who's your buddy that usually does the vids, goldenapples? tell him to get with the program Grin
Jerry

Thanks, Jerry!! Yes, Jon(goldenapples), is my good buddy that does all the filming and editing of our videos. He's been working 7 days a week, and can't break away for some hunts right now. I may bring back all our videos in a special post for the newbies and seasoned hunters to view.

Dan...truly sorry about your buddy. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.
Nice huntin' my friend...and keep up the good work....especially since you don't have to worry about the snow flyin' Wink

Thanks, Bryce! Appreciate it! Yeah, no snow here...it's in the 90's right now...a little on the hot side. I have to fill my cooler with ice cold beverages right now....it's just what I need after swinging for a few hours in the sun.
