I decided to hunt a small park by the university I go to! I got out there and after three pennies I got a half dollar signal on my ace 250! Normally I ignore the half dollar signals because they end up being deeper iron, but this was a solid hit. I dug the plug around 5-6 inches and It was laying at the bottom of the hole! My first silver coin! And its a walking liberty half!!! I think I hit it with the digger in the back, but I can't be upset with this awesome find!

Great first silver, honestly i was expecting a dime or something but a half is a splendid start to the silver career, congrats!
 

Nice coin! I love that black tarnish look of an old coin!
 

Well that is a most exciting find ! Congratulations !!
 

Congrats on your first silver. Not many people find a walker as their first silver.
 

Wow alotta ppls 1sts are dimes like mine was, way to go!
 

What a nice FIRST silver!!! I own a bunch of these from coin collecting, but have never found one metal detecting! Congrats on your first big silver, you will never forget it I'm sure!:thumbsup:
 

If you're going to find a silver coin it may as well be a half dollar. That's an awesome way to break into the silver column. :occasion14:
 

Congrats! way to start off on the silvers!
 

Awesome! Still looking for my first Walker. My first silver though was found using an Ace 250. Congrats! :thumbsup:
