Dave invited me to one of his spots today... <:
Turned out to be a very fun hunt for us. Weather was cold and windy, but it didn't matter.
Nothing too old, but man the dimes were flying out of the ground for me.

Dave digging a promising signal.

My harvest for the day. Plus a bonus Merc.

Only two Roosevelts in this group are from the 70's. The rest are 1947-1969.
My best silver day so far... 11 :happydance01:

Holy cow that's amazing! I'm used to digging 15 wheats and MAYBE one Rosie, so to see that haul is really something. Congrats!

Thank you everyone. It was a very fun hunt.
I am more of a 1 or 2 silver in a hunt person so this was a real treat. :yes:
It's going to be hard for Dave and I to beat this hunt with silver numbers, but we'll certainly
have fun trying. Just one of those days where the stars and planets lined up perfectly. thumbsup01

No, we weren't over there. But, one of the church workers showed up and said we could go over there if we wanted to. Obviously we both knew better
than to do that. Dave politely declined the invitation and explained how that was against the Detecting Code of Ethics. :yes:
