After 34 years of deteccting I finally found a Franklin Half. I also found another silver Rosie,3 wheats and of course some clad. I have the screen shots of the half before digging on the video. Check out the link below.

I know how you felt when you saw that big silver :smitten:.
I've been lucky enough to have found 5 big silvers (4 halves & a barber dollar).
This is my most memorable........

Happy Hunting....
