The sun was shining and we were at 40 degrees so off to hit my usual lunch time spot to see what else I might be blessed to find....

Was hitting the usual trash, zincs, and pre 82' pennies when I just barely caught a deep signal next to some iron...Went back carefully over it a few times and sure enough it sounded like we might just have a silver dime. Dug my plug and what a nice sight to see. A pretty 62' Rosie...

Went on hunting and got another good hit for silver...this time it was a higher VDI..right where a silver quarter would be...Turned over the dirt and could see a sweet rim of a silver quarter sticking out....woohoo. A nice 43' Washington... Just maybe 6 away immediately had another silver dime hit....must have been dropped at the same time as the quarter? It was a 54 Rosie...

Also ended up adding another wheat to the pile...a 58'....

My hour lunch time hunts give me maybe 50 minutes of actual hunt time so on a day like this I get pretty excited...

I was using my MXT Pro with the 6x10 and my new R.S. Auvio wireless headphones.

Thanks for looking!!

Thanks folks...

I don't usually make more than one or two great finds at my lunch time spot but it keeps me excited to know that there is hope for more great targets every time I go there....

Its a big place so should keep my busy for years to come at 50 minutes a shot lol

Howdy Amigo!
That's a heckuva hunt you had there. Nice going!
Looking forward to your trip out west in April, and I'm ready with machines and transport!
Maybe this time around, you'll go home with gold in your pocket!

Blessings,
