OMG! I got one! I finely pulled a silver! I excepted the fact that some experienced detectorist with a big dollar machine already cleaned out my area. I have spent a lot of hours hunting and never pulled any silver. Today was my day! I got a dime hit dug a plug and there she was stuck to the bottom of the plug all shiny and bright! All I could see was the olive leaves and thought, NO WAY! It was 4-5 " deep. 1941 Mercury Dime! I also dug a 1942 Wheat cent that was.......11" deep!

I sure love that 9 X 12 head. I know a 41 Merc is not a huge recovery but, I have been waiting for a silver for a long time. Thanks for looking!
