Great hunt 4/2 plus 4/1 and 3/31 stuff

[p2c]

I wish everyone a good Good Friday... I managed to get out for a 3 hour hunt really early this morning. Found everything in first 2 hours, last hour nothing... Anyway today I managed a 1940 Merc, a 1946-D Rosie, a 1944 - P war Nickel -- Brings my silver count up to 17!!! Plus last night I got a 1944 -S war nick, which at the time was #14. I also pulled a 1927 (barely legible) buffalo this morning to go along with a no-date buffalo I pulled on 3/31. I am up to 6 Buffaloes on the year, so far! I also pulled 6 Wheat today, 2 Wheat yesterday and 2 on 3/31 (dates: 18, 26-d, 28, 36, 40, 41-d, 46-d, 46-s, 51-d, 56-d)


My silver drought ended! With the smallest trickle yesterday, but today


Included in the buffalo picks is my first buff on the year from 2/20, which I just cleaned today. It's a beauty with a full strong legible date.





Thanks for looking, have a great Easter holiday, and happy hunting...

Actually, I was using my 1985 Radio shack Micronta 3000. Can't afford the bounty hunter, even their cheapest model.

I remember reading somewhere people claiming E-Tracs were only good on silver, but weak on Nickels. I think the E-trac rocks the nickels. Far superior to my old Fisher F-70. I think once you hear a Nickel, you find them easy with the E-trac. It hits them well. Maybe they were too afraid of tumors or they just had their smart find pattern set up wrong for Nickels. I've now found 3 V's, 6 Buffs, 4 War Nickels with the E-trac for 2010 so far and countless heartbreaking '39-NonWar'42 and 46-49 Jeffersons.

Glad you ended your silver drought. It sucks going so long without some good finds. You did a great job catching up! I would love to find one of those war nickels. Congrats
