Headed out to a local park this evening to get some more practice in with the SE. It is an old park that has been pounded over the years, but I like to hunt there because the lawn is irrigated so this time of year it is pretty easy digging. I was just trying to do the turtle crawl (Thanks T-Bucket), and go very slow and dig everything in a small area. After 1.5 hours I had 5 pull tabs to show for my effort. I was almost back to the car and still going slow when I got signal that repeated, was high pitched and deep. I dug a plug to the depth of my Lesche (7") and scanned the bottom of the hole. I got one of those beautiful high pitched tones that told me I probably had silver. Took out another inch or so from the bottom of the plug and there in my hand was a 1961 Canadian Silver dime. My first Canadian silver and my first silver from this particular park.
