Awesome silver finds, congrats and welcome to Tnet! Does not look like you are using the macro option on your camera, push that little tulip button before taking close up pictures. HH, Mike

:o :o RogerD, this may be your first post or near to your first but you have it down pat my friend. Just a little bit more practice with the camera and you'll nail it. Congrats on the super finds. Are you still stump detectin'?
Welcom aboard Tnet and HH

Re: Re-old silver coins

Hi, Welcome from the UK.

Use the macro on your camera & take it a bit further away. Should help with focus.

Nice finds :)

Some great finds. DFX or any detector. How long you been detecting? I started with a DFX. Good machine. Mostly Minelab man now. Most detectors are good machines.

Keep the finds coming.....

Did you detect the stumps?

That does sound like a possible cache.

Anyhow. Congrats and welcome!

Great job on the big silver. Maybe someone was riding through on horseback and accidentally dumping silver dollars along the way, I hope there is more!
