April Fool!
I hit a site this morning and found a Mercury dime and a War Nickel. After a good going over I decided to move to another site that I've detecting before. On the way there I saw a guy who I met earlier in the year while out detecting, Steve, standing out in his front yard.
He asked me where I was going and I told him to site down the road to detect. He said why don't you detect the house across the street? He said the lady who owns it is in a nursing home and he's looking after the house for her. I told him that sounds great, if he'll go over there with me, because the neighbors don't know me.
The front yard wasn't all that big, maybe 30 x 50 feet. Wow, I started popping coins just about everywhere that I swung my search coil. I ended up at this site finding 9 silver coins and 17 wheat pennies. With the 2 at the other site gives me 11 silver coins for the day. Not bad for 3 1/2 hours of detecting.
This was my 41st hunt for the year and my silver coin total for the year now stands at 127. All done without getting skunked on a single hunt.
My F75DST detector settings: 9.0, Sensitivity 85, DE Mode, 3H Tones, Disc Level 5, GB 67.
