Took the MXTPro for a walk in the corn field, cranked it all the way up with 0 disc. Dug a lot of junk, but found this little piece of silver and I just happen to have one that's complete. 1 real. Good luck to all. Art

Nice finds! Thanks for sharing...
 
Nice score Art. That's one tiny piece of silver. :icon_thumright:
 
I never realized that cut coinage were reduced to that size, that is like one eighth of the whole coin. Congrats Art
 
Nice job picking up that silver sliver!
 
Sounds like you're detecting Cru'Style.:thumbsup: CONGRATS
 
Good job, Art. Silver's silver, no matter how you "slice" it, lol. -Lisa & John
 
Nice one trapper. Must have had your ears open for that little joker.
 
Great find. There's all kinds of surprises lying beneath when you turn the disc Down
 
Awesome piece of a 1 real find! :occasion14:
 
Awesome find Art, :thumbsup: Did it ring up as silver or as a mid tone due to depth?
 
nice find for silver
 
That's a tiny piece. Good job.

So if a reale was ~12.5 cents then, that would be 2 cents?
 
You never cease to amaze!

Did you weigh that sliver?

Congrats.
 
That's pretty amazing! You should be proud of that recovery. A lot of people would have missed it I bet
