Well it finaly happened i found my first Silver with my ATPro. A 1935 Mercury dime, it took 404 days to do it but it was worth the wait. I was at the property in Winchester where I mow with the "trashpit" and i did a little detecting/digging in the pit today. I started with the trash pit first and found a bunch more clay and glass marbles, a Bayer Asprin bottle, a 1950's Junior Pilot ring, a grille to an old toy truck. I found all the coins with the detector. The dates of the wheats are; 1942x2, 191?, 1954d, 1953d, 1940, 1946, 1955. The nickel is a 1940, my oldest Jefferson nickel. This was my best old coin day (quantity) I have ever had. I also got some CW relics, a fired Sharps, some other fired bullet, camp lead, .69 cal musket ball and the GS Eagle cuff button with "extra USA" on the backmark. Never had one say USA before. I had a ton of fun today and hope the silver starts rolling in from this point on. Thanks for looking and HH!!!

I love dump digging almost better than detecting. That ring is from American Airlines. They used to give the girls a ring and the boys would get wings when they visited the cockpit of the plane back in the 50's. Now you don't even get peanuts and if you want to go up front they'll arrest you. Nice finds tho.
