I had only found 1 silver coin this month. The old 1800's sites don't seem to pop out silver like the 1900's sites. Decided to to hit a 1900's site that has given up more than a dozen silver coins this year, but I have hammered this site and it has slowed way down. After half an hour only one wheat, then a to good to be true high tone in the matted down long grass. Thought beer can top, but the signal was really nice and tight, so I dug it.

Awesome feeling when your hunch (hope) is realized and you see a familiar rim. ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1503942619.344593.webp

Great looking large silver coin! :occasion14:
 
Love it! Congrats!!
 
Thx! This site is about 6 acres. I have found concentrations of silver coins in 3 small areas, but wheats throughout the 6 acres. I typically have about 45 minutes to hunt so I go in with a plan of hitting just one area. Today's keeper was at the edge of a field I must have swung over at least a couple times this year and never found silver in this area. I'm thinking the grass got so long that it finally is laying down and this allowed the signal to reach the coin or I just missed it in the past...

Shoot me a message if you need help covering that 6 acres.....lol!
 
Very beautiful well detailed Walking Liberty Half Dollar my friend. That coin has waited a long time for you to come and rescue her. Maybe some more around that immediate area? Well done.:hello2:
