Cool and windy didn't want to go to far, so headed to a place where I got an 1806 (or 07) GEO III Copper two days ago.
It wasn't more than 15 minutes before I get the first decent signal.
1854 New Brunswick half penny currency. The 9th copper of 2012. I continued on for I'd say an hour as the battery died in my watch before I get another good signal this one is up in the 90's. Figuring junk of some kind I flipped the plug over to see something big and silver colored in the hole, always hoping silver, but expecting aluminum. Not this time, 5 years waiting for this one, my first Silver half dollar 1918 NFLD. I'll take it.
I got another coin before pulling the plug on the below freezing wind chill, happy to call it a day with one crossed off the top ten list.
Good luck out there.
