This Is Not Right 40% silver

The kid and I went back to our Bed and Breakfast for a couple hours today. Not much was found, for me a single round ball, piece of camp lead and a live 22 round.
We were getting ready to leave and at the jeep, I went past the jeep and got a 92 hit on the AT Pro.
I've been wanting a walker from day one. My first ever big silver was a Franklin, then I found a Barber half last year.
Flip a plug and stick the pin pointer in the bottom of the hole, pin pointer shows its just below the dirt. Scoop a little more dirt out and I see its big silver. Thinking I finally got my Walker I pick it up and look. Not!! It's a 40% Kennedy. Lol
No complaints here, I'll take it!! Maybe that Walker will show itself my next hunt.

My first silver ever was a silver half about 6 feet from my front door. Blew my mind!!

Wait till you find a full silver dollar. It will scream!! I found a full $ from 1870 about 2 inches down with my AT Pro. Blew my headphones off my head!

A silver Kennedy is a nice find Deershed. Your Walker will show up one day soon.

'M SURE YOUR NEXT ONE WILL BE A Walker.

Just be happy with what you're given and don't "want" the Walker so much. When we get fixed on one it just takes away from all hunts that doesn't give one up. It's ok to wish, to dream, to sort of pretend on a signal in anticipation. It's the stuff that dreams are made of, but, it takes away some of the fun too. When it turns out to be "not".

I'd be willing to bet that when you finally do uncover that Walker, it will take you COMPLETELY by surprise! The type of signal, the place, the timing, etc. One day, you'll flip over a plug and there it will be, shining in the sun!

Great finds!

Congratulations on the Kennedy silver half.
I didn't get a silver half dollar in all of 2016.
2015 was my year for Halves,, 3 Walkers & 2 Barbers.
I haven't gotten a Benjamin or Kennedy in a long time.

Oh, I'm happy with the Kennedy. Believe me I'm stoked with finding it. And it being a 40% doesn't take anything away from it. Makes a Great addition to my halves family too.
I think it's kinda funny though. Watched the kid pull 3 or 4 big silvers including a Walker before I ever got a big silver. It's not like halves show up that often and when I find one it's everything but a Walker.
I think my only probably with not finding a Walkier is the fact I want one so bad. Lol.
