Metal Detecting
Today at dusk, I dug a 94-95 signal that was very shiny when I looked into the hole. My brain recognized it was silver from all of the cool metal detecting videos I have watched on Youtube, wondering when that would be me that finds the silver. Well, today was the day! And it is right at my two year anniversary of metal detecting. It was sooooo much fun pulling out this 1964 Kennedy half dollar. :laughing7:

Congratulations! Thrilling, isn’t it.
 

Bet it rang loud and clear. Congrats!
 

First silver is always a giant thrill! Congratulations! Thanks for sharing with us!
 

That's one helluva way to start off with your first silver!! :cat: Took me years to find my first half and I only have one. Silver dimes and quarters are now gonna feel like small potatoes to you. :laughing7: Congrats R&B!
 

Hi Ho Silver!!
 

Congrats on that big silver, hope you find more!
 

Very Nice!!! Congrats!!!
 

Really Nice find R&B !! Those don't get dug up very often either ! Congratulations !! So nice to see fat silver in the hole rather than a crushed beer can !
 

Awesome!!! Gotta love the sound of a silver half under your coil!!! Great job and congrats!!!!
 

That would be what we call true treasure - congrats to ya! :occasion14:
 

Congrats on your first silver and a big one at that....:icon_thumright:
 

Congrats on your first silver!!!

Happy Digging!
 

Hey hey hey! That's how it's done! You've put most of us to shame however, my first silver coin was a Roosevelt dime. Keep trying, you are sure to find more!
 

Congrats on your first silver. Hope you find more.
 

Congrats on your first silver coin R&B. That one is a dandy. Most of us start off with a silver dime. Your next one will probably be a Morgan dollar. Nothing like starting off at the top !

Thanks, Erik! You are right on the quarters and dimes....Funny thing is, this is my THIRD half dollar I have dug in 3 months. I am doing nothing differently, just the way it is. I stared at that coin for a long time in my hand! :)
