Double Silver Day!

[Bell-Two]

Diane and I got back from Church today had some lunch and then decided to go out and do a little hunting. We went to an old park that I had not been to with the E-Trac so I was hoping to find some goodies. We had not been there too long when I heard Diane say I think I found something she came walking over to me and said as she handed me her find It may be a token or a Canadian coin. Well it was more than that for on just her fourth hunt she broke into the silver club not with a Rosey or even a Merc but she did it up right with a 1908 Barber Dime! Diane has been using my old Ace 250 and doing a great job with it. When I told her what it was she just broke out in a big grin, and how that girl can smile! So being the clever detector that I am, I decide to go over in the area she had been hunting I was quickly rewarded with a wheatie, nice and green turned out to be a 1919 S. About 10 feet from that I got a good signal that first read 08-46 then as I turned a bit it got more solid 06-47 and I dug what was a beautiful 1912 D Barber Half! I finished up with three wheaties 1944, 1920, 1919-S and the half Diane had the dime and we both had a great time. I had been told before by some old timers that this park was hunted outwell it may have been hunted out but not by an E-Trac I guess or even an Ace 250!

Thanks Angel, yes it was my hands were shaking a bit, I have dug one other Silver half a 1940 Walking Liberty half and I was excited then but I knew when I saw this it was even better, I was sure it was a Barber even before I washed it off...what a great feeling it was a couple of weeks ago that I got my first Barber a 1911-D Dime so this was a shock to me.

Very, very nice B-T

Last year and most of this year I hunted with an Ace 250 and did very well. I even pulled a Merc, '44 Washington and a Buffalo from our 'hunted out' park. The 250 is a very capable machine. Sadly, I haven't been able to pull a silver from the same park this year with my Explorer SE. :confused: Either I just got lucky with my 250 or those were the last oldies in the park..... I think I just got lucky.

Anyway, congrats to you and Diane. The Barber half is gorgeous.

By the way.... she does have a beautiful smile. :yes:

By the way x 2... awesome video!
