So I went to the picnic ground I had good luck at last weekend today. The first half of the hunt wasnt producing so I headed to the area I had hit before. First good signal was sounding like a wheat and ringing in at an 81- 82 on the at gold. I popped the plug and out flew big silver. I literally said no bleeping way as I was staring at the outline of a silver half. Took a second to enjoy the moment and snap a pic then rechecked the hole. Found the wheat I thought was there but also a rusty nail and bottle cap(pictured). Im guessing thats why I only heard the wheat. Part of me is sad that I missed out on that sweet tone of a silver half that comes around only ounce in a blue moon but beggars can't be choosers. I'll take it! After that I managed to pull out another wheat followed by a nice little merc right before I had to call it a day. Great day all in all and plan on trying to squeek a few more goodies out of this site before the big freeze.

Have had that happen a few times, never with a Walker though. Congrats
 

Great save! I remember my (one and only) Walker, like it was yesterday...a clear, high 91-92...omg it was pure bliss thru my headphones...I'd never dug one, but knowing it was special, I dug a W I D E berth and 5 inches down there she was, in all her beautiful, silver glory...too bad that meddling wheat got in the way! Lol...awesome save, great coin..Ddf
 

Nice finds, congratulations! :occasion14:
