Went to the old beach yesterday for a hour at low tide and hit two Silver Washington quarters
Then today I tried one of my old schoolyards to see if I could snag some more silver or a relic from the 1800's.
It's been pretty dry there lately as I got nothing but wheaties there the last time I was there. I pull tons of wheaties every time I go, but silver is getting a little scarce. You really have to work for it and look for the deep 6 to 8in. or deeper targets . Well today I was hitting a spot I haven't really hit hard and I got a nice clean high tone on the NOX reading in the low thirties. Turned out to be a 1945 merc. I was in a good mood now. Then about ten feet away I get a choppy high tone, high twenties low thirties at about 6 to 8in. I dig a 6" deep plug, no sound from pinpointer. I go down another 3 or 4 in. and I get tone on the pinpointer. Two more inches and out pops a large cent I was really happy now, this made my day. Turned out to be a 1844 Canadian half cent. This is the third large copper I have pulled from this field.
After a few more wheaties I decide to head back to the car, happy with todays finds. Making my way down a hill to the lower field. I get a great high tone at the top of the hill. A 24 to 31 at a good depth. I think maybe another silver dime. Down around 6 in. I pull out a chunky silver (13g)sterling Jesus pendent
Great way to end the day
