Hi all haven't been on here much...busy around the house. But I FINALLY got out that last couple days for the first time this year. I managed my first silver....nothing major, just a worn-out no-date SLQ. I also found a pretty nice 1885 IH today. I was also cleaning up some wheaties from last year, lo and behold there were 2 VDB's in there! ( no "S" on either of them though :( )
HH,

Nice finds! That a nice looking IH, and congrats on the SLQ.

Good luck,

Nice finds. What detector were you using? Just curious as to what your VDI might be on those finds...jgas
 
Looks like a good 2009. Congrats

I was using my Explorer XS set at Iron Mask -14 and conductive tones with an 8" Minelab Coil.

I haven't gotten out much with my MXT, it's kind of hard getting used to it after running an Explorer for 7 or so years. I'm thinking about selling it and putting the money towards upgrading to an Explorer SE or E-Trak
 
SLQ would absolutely make may day. Nice finds there.
 
very nice job on the silver! Love that indian head penny :)
