Newbie luck continues.... First Wheatie to go with my first Rosie!

[tmdavis3]

Hello all! After reading a discussion from Miss Liz about fill areas, I decided to try an experiment today with my detector and my filled-in yard. I started with the areas I know dirt was merely shifted from a low-lying field to the hilltop. Located 16 targets, and then started digging all of them, writing down the signals and depths and results. I found my very first Wheatie in the third hole!!!!!! YAY!! A 1947, and in great condition.

Oh, yeah, I am doing the happy dance! Heading out to dig more. Wish me more of that newbie luck!

Will post photos and the rest of the results later tonight.
