blow the whistle-found two more silver.

[alb1]

Found silver 3 & 4 FTY yesterday. The 1940-P Mercury was found at a park/school along with the old fashioned school yard monitor's whistle. The whistle kind of works and was found at 8 inches. I was excited to find this beat up 1946-P Rosie at an abandoned/ boarded up home nearby the school because a couple of years ago I detected this same property with my White's MXT-Pro and somehow missed the dime. Found some additional Wheaties on the property as well. I'm almost at a personal milestone as I'm up to 99 silver coins since resuming metal detecting in Nov 2013. All but 12 have been found with my Etrac. HH!

Does your whistle say The Acme Thunder on it? I have about 6 of them. One of my favorite old finds. Nice silvers

Nice going! That e-trac is a great machine. You should see what the CTX does. This past year.

Not to get off the subject of his finds but I really don't think you found many if any of those silver coins any deeper than the E-Trac. You got over them with the CTX that is the difference. I found 307 silver coins with my CZ-21 and my Tiger Shark. You wouldn't have got that many with your CTX where I was. It would be a drowned CTX.

I have an E-Trac and my friend has a Dirty30. He has yet to get over a silver coin I couldn't detect. This thread is about his finds.
