BIG Silver and Old Merc!!!

[schwabie16]

I've been pretty busy lately, and haven't had much time to get out and detect, but I had a little time today, and I'm very glad I went out!

I got some new permission on an old, smaller house in the neighborhood, and started right away. In about 20 minutes, I was able to pull a somewhat crusty old merc from beside the sidewalk. I was already satisfied, and 30 uneventful minutes later, I got a banging 87-91 signal in the middle of the yard, right after digging some junk, and pulled a nice looking '44 walker right out of the plug! 2nd big silver of the year! Also found 5 wheats in between.

That's a big silver all right.. nice job..

the MERC has great hairline detail and what look like full bands and sticks. try aluminum foil and baking soda treatment and it may look even better. THE HALF---- I only see them in my dreams. congrats

That Walker still has some nice detail. You don't see 'em come out of the ground much better than that! Congrats!
