FOUND MY FIRST SILVER LADY

[dumpdigger68]

I found my first silver today, a nice clean SLQ only about 4" down under a big lilac tree. I'm still flyin kinda high since I have been detecting only about 3 weeks now. I am still getting a very strong signal all around the base of the tree, going to have to do more digging under it to find out if there's more silver waiting for me. I'm using a detector thats a bit of a relic, Bounty Hunter DE-280 Outlaw but it's finding coins for me so it still works. I have'nt bothered to post the clad coins or wheaties but had to show this one off. I only got one pic of the front for now and hope it loads, it may need resizing by someone that knows how, cause I'm not too good at this digital pic thing yet. Thanks for looking and happy huntin to you all.

Wow! A dateless SLQ with....uh....a date!!! And the famed scraped reeds.........way cool. I remember finding my first one in my own yard. 10" it was........barely noticeable. I nearly passed it over and once I started digging I nearly gave up. Never give up on a repeater, no matter how deep it is, even if it is one sided!!

Congrats on your slq. I think they are the most beautiful US coin ever made. I started saving them when I was a teenager and that was a while ago. I`d rather find a SLQ than most seated dimes.

Great find, and will be waiting for you to show us the other silver stuff that is hiding in the roots of that old tree.
Just go sssssssllllllllllllloooooooooooooowwwwwww. Don't rush. Dig big circles of earth to try to get around and then
under the target. You'll kick yourself if you scratch the coin. Keep us posted.
