There's No More Silver in So. Cal...

:laughing7:

Okay, I was lying. :tongue7:

I had a fun-filled detecting week. My buddies and I climbed a lot of hills this week. I went to at least three different parks that have produced silver in the past. And wouldn't you know it....more was found.

In my pic is another one (my second) of those 3-ring style bullets. It was found near my seated dime find. Also found the holed Belgian 5 Franc. It's a zinc coin, made during the Nazi occupation of the country.

The Washington was found at a barrio park today, along with a mint '27 S Mercury dime, and a '52 Rosie. And 34 wheaties for your viewing pleasure!!

Thanks for looking! Only 11 more silver coins to go 'til I hit 1000 silvers in two years. I have until the end of January to do it. I purchased my SE at the end of Jan. '07.

Happy Holidays! :icon_santa:

Nice finds!! I'd say you've got a few more years of large silver counts before you're area is thinned out!! You might have to find Parks further away for the east stuff!! I do like the bullet!

Re: There's No More Silver in So. Cal...

hit 1000 silvers in two years ?......You absolutely WILL !........You are the reason (indirectly) I bought a Minelab (E-Trac)...
My hunting buddy (GOIO)........was finding pretty much NOTHING 8 months ago...Till he read your posts,and bought an SE.....Then the Pro coil....(In June ?).............
After digging tons of nails and watching your posts.................His finds started to SKYROCKET.....................I had been a Compass detector hunter.......+.....lots of other brands.
When GOIO found silver our 1st 3 hunts with his SE,and said he was buying the E-T....I followed suit,and (in that 3+ months) have never looked back.
GOIO should find his 300th silver this weekend,and I'll bee with him finding shiny of my own.
I know exersize does a body good,and I hope you are still feeling well.
