When do you NOT want to see Big Silver in a Hole?

[ScubaDetector]

I know, I know!! When you are digging it for someone else!!

Got out with my friend Kevin again today. He still can't bend over and dig so I still fill in. Found a few interesting places to go to and had a bit of fun. Got permission to hit an old apple orchard and we were not disappointed. My first target was a wheat. He got on the board with a very ornate old silver ring. I got a few more wheat's and then a beautiful silver sound. Got the 1951 quarter. Although I didn't know it was a Washington until getting back to my truck because I didn't want to wipe the dirt off it.

While Kevin was detecting I heard a beautiful silver sound out of his machine. I turned off mine and went over to dig his target. Well when I first saw it I thought it was a large token. Then I turn it over and see the eagle. I just handed it to him and called him a turkey. 1894 Barber half. I also dug 7 wheat cents for him oldest was 1914 and a 1904 indian penny. My oldest wheat's were a 1910 and a 1920.

Not much trash at all. Turned out to be a very good day. Going back Sunday to see why we didn't find any silver dimes. Hopefully some more indians are hiding in there also.

Way to go Scuba. You are one heck of a detecting partner. If I asked my partner to dig for me until I got better, he would look at me and tell me to stay home ! Great job on the coins.
