Got my first SLQ tonight

[Slipperyjack47]

Stopped after work at the trusty fairgrounds tonight for a quickie hunt. I got a 1871 2 center there a few days ago and decided to go back to that area and try to listen for some deep signals. About ten minutes in to the hunt I got a 52 wheatie at about 7 inches. then it wasn't long and I got a hard quarter signal and the depth meter was pegged. Was giving me trouble on getting a good pinpoint as there is alot of trash in this spot but I managed a guess and started diggin, 10 inches later up comes my first every SLQ! Bad part is that besides the date being wore off, I dinged it with my digger I usually am very careful when digging those deep signals but this one kinda gave me fits with the pinpointing and I think there might have been another metal object very close to it that was messin me up. Well at least I got one under my belt now and can go for a better one next time, hopefully with a date on it and no digger tracks!


Happy Hunting

Jack my man! I knew it was only a matter of time until that silver started popping out of the ground for ya! The ding don't matter...if it had a date it might, so you are safe on that one. Take a lesson from Jim...he digs really mammoth plugs so he don't damage those precious coins! Congrats big time!
