Well still excited from finding a Barber half dollar on Thursday, I was looking to get out again and try my luck. I drove an hour down to this awesome old school spot I detected once before years ago. This place screams lost old coins and I'm sure it has been hunted hard in the past. There's not a ton of good signals but there is a ton of iron around the old school. I am still trying to understand the chatter and the noise the Nox makes. I dug an old pocket knife and a few pieces of trash before getting a great signal that repeated 33-34. I figured it to be trash but had a thought about how awesome it would be to dig another half dollar. So I cut my plug, flipped the clod over and caught a glimpse of big silver in the hole. I stood up and walked away laughing as I couldn't believe my luck. I went back to pluck my treasure out and to see a beautiful 1936 Walker! I got back to digging and finding a few wheats as it was getting dark. I worked my way back to the truck and found an Indian/wheat cent spill. I lucked up on a Washington quarter and my last signal was the cool Boy Scout good luck token. It was nice to get in some time with the Nox. I am looking froward to learning more about what it's telling me. Pretty happy so far with the results over my last two hunts.

Thanks! Yeah I'm pretty excited with these for sure. I haven't been able to get out as much so it makes up for missed times.
