Primary Interest:
All Treasure Hunting
I have owned many brand detector's over the last 28 years. Last year I bought my Fisher F75, it was a learning curve, with the VDI's different from most detector's I had been use to. This year, I'm really listening to the machine, and finding Silver with other coins or objects in the hole.

Today, was another one of those, with a Silver Quarter VDI, bouncing around... Dug the plug, pulled a 1907 "V" nickel out of the hole.. Knew the VDI was much higher... reached in the hole and pulled more dirt out by hand. A 1917 Type 1 Standing Liberty Quarter.. The nickel was on top of the quarter and the green crud stuck to it... It took over an hour in a salt water electrolysis , to get the crud off.

After this week, I'll be spoiled, and throw my Rosie's back.... LOL NOT !!!!!! I value every silver I find, and think of a few friends every time I dig one. Make the time to get out... what a stress reliever....

Your lucky week is making me jealous! Lol. That is a great looking SLQ compared to most that are found. Grats on the super hot streak of great finds and the banner!
 
Type 1 SLQ is a killer find
 
Congrats! Thats a beauty.
 
You just keep killing it!
Awesome! Just AWESOME!
COINgrats!
 
DAMN WHAT A FIND
 
Very nice type 1 SLQ! I think you will love the F75, I know I love mine. It works great for those coins that are tilted in the ground too. They won't usually pinpoint on center so if you get a nice signal but find nothing in the hole you may have to enlarge the sides a bit to get at it.

mikefromIllinois, no they came from another sight, new to me... I live in the catskill mts. in NY... In the 30's thru 50's, everyone from NYC, use to come to the country and live in bungalow colony's for the summer... these old colony's are now religious summer camps for kids. The caretaker's give us permission to detect after Sept 1... Problem is trying to find the old coins thru 1,000's and 1,000's of new penny's and clad.. You have to pick the higher tone's and still dig lots carp..
