8 Silvers!! 46 For 46!!

[Captn SE]

Hello, My Good Friends!!

I felt tempted to go back to the "silver park" this week, but kept to my word that I wouldn't be going back for a while. I decided to go to a park I hunted quite a bit last year. It's a great old coin park that millions of picnic'ers have been to since the turn of the century. The only problem is that almost every inch has been detected, but since there is so much trash in the ground, it is hard to get all of the coins. I decided to try a real trashy, hard-packed dirt area in the park. I met Mike(Ratman) there today, hoping to find just a couple of missed silver coins. I was totally surprised today to find 6 silver dimes(and only 7 wheats) in that hard-packed dirt. : The Pro Coil is great at being able to pick through heavy trash to find the deeper high conductors. I thought I would have to put my 8" coil on, but I decided to trust the abilities of my Pro Coil. It didn't let me down. In fact, it hasn't let me down in 46 consecutive turf hunts since June.

This park is notorious for highly oxidized silver coins. Every one of my dimes came out of the ground stark white. I took a pic of them before I cleaned them, along with the "after" electrolysis photo. The shiny, un-oxidized Rosie in the middle of the pic was found at a different park, and so was the sterling piece of bracelet, chopped by a lawnmower. I also found what looks to be an anti-aircraft bullet, a strange find at the park today.

So, all in all, it was a great day that greatly surpassed my expectations. I honestly didn't think I was going to ever have a 6 silver day at this park again. I was wrong.

Thanks for looking!
Keep the Passion High!

Another Super Day Dan. I haven't been keeping up as much this year (due to health) as last year so what's your total in silver so far?

Hello Paul. I haven't heard from you in a while! Hang in there, buddy!! Thanks for the reply. I'm around 310 silver coins for the year. A far cry from last year, but that's to be expected.

Incredible.


I think you're the hunter that will end up with MOST of the silver from those parks!


It's because you have a Top Notch machine and you know it Very well.



Bravo to you! Keep it up, Captn.

Thanks, Buckles, for your reply!! And thanks again for helping me on the ID/age of those old buckles yesterday!

You're getting harder to keep up with Dan..that's awesome, keep it up!

This is an OUTRAGE ... you should be at 50 for 50 by now ... I think your slacking ~ Get back out there and start digging ... PRONTO ...

Hey, thanks a bunch, Nick!! I know I'm slacking... I'm just slowing down a little now. I've already met my 300 goal. Not much more to accomplish this year. It's fun just to get out there and find some oldies in the turf. RO&P, my friend!

Can the silver Gods send me some sun and warmth....So Captn....can ya Brrrrr...in my neck of the woods Buddy... Nice digs again Captn...Congrats. jgas

Thanks, jgas! I'm not sure about sending you any sun and warmth. Right now, we don't even have it here. The fog is rolling in from the ocean right now. No sun.

I Knew you could not stay away from silver Park and I don't blame you !!!!! Congrats on the 7 silver and Good luck on your next hunt !!!!!

But, Gary, I didn't go back yet. This was from a different "silver park". Thanks for you reply!! Good luck if your season is not over yet!

Very nice job on the silver dude!!!!! You have done it again! We should all get together from treasurenet at the end of the year, and throw captain SE a big CONGRATULATIONS! PARTY! Not kidding either!

Thanks again, Everyone!

Dang, that is ONE amazing streak!
Insane actually!
It looks like my detecting season came to a very abrupt halt about 4 days ago.
Went out on Monday, and the ground was frozen.
No sing of a warm up for at least a full week.
Congrats on the awesome silver streak!
That's GOTTA be a record!

 

[dirt doctor]

Dan,

Congratulations on extending your streak. A truly amazing accomplishment, I must say!

Detecting has all but ended here in Iowa. The current temperature is 12 degrees, on a way to a high of 34 today. But hopefully this weekend will still provide a last chance to get out and do one more hunt.

Keep up the good work. I hope your silver streak never ends!

HH,

Dr, Ace

No problem! Those buckles were Excellent finds. Will they get posted somewhere with a little back-story at some point? If so, please send me the link!

Nice batch of silver Captn.

Those one's really got eaten up by the soil. It' funny how you can find a old park with bad/high mineralization and pull coins out of those areas were others units were to unstable. I used to do it all the time to my brother.

He had a mxt and it couldn't handle the hot rock and ground minerals. The Dfx does a far better job at pulling coins in bad soils. Now I look for bad soil lol.
