Today before I went to work , I went mding for an hour and the last signal that I dug turned out to be a coin that I didn't really expect to find only because few people carry them. I should mention that my bucket list us pretty long as mostly all that I have found is current currency. So this morning I set my alarm to go off 10 minutes before I need to punch in so I can go dig for a bit before before work and my last target turned out to be a 1974 half dollar

I know that's not to exciting to some of you but I thought it was pretty cool especially a day after I found silver #5 a 1951 rosie

Congrats on the half and the silver! I know how tough it is detecting there, so that half must have sounded either really good or like a flattened aluminum can-good job!

See you also finally got yourself a Lesche-bet that helps on the digging too!

Hey congrats on the half! I have been detecting for almost 4 years and I think I have dug just 3 clad halves...I have dug 6 silver halves. So for me clad seems rarer.

Congrats on on the silver too!

You're 1st half....:congrats:. t
There's not that many out there so either clad or silver its still a good find.

Very nice ! You have to start somewhere whittling down that bucket list.

Yea I had to. I wore out the garden shovel but I can't complain, it lasted about 5000 holes

Yep, I think you will like the upgrade-those things are bulletproof! Dropped mine in a sidewalk this morning point first. Saw the concrete dust because it hit so hard and I thought "Oh hell, there goes the tip!" I checked, and not even a scratch! The Fiskars I was using before would have been toast.

Nice. I've only gotten 1 half before. They sure don't pop up often.

I only recall digging two halfs ever...a Barber and a Kennedy. Those things are rare! :notworthy:
