I am so so so happy to be getting out... Hi my name is Paul and I'm an Addict!

I started the day working a site that I hit plenty hard last year and got the '39 Washington at yesterday... I had 7 wheaties and a 56 Roosies and decided to jump to a new location I've nevver hunted before...

My 2nd target at the new location was '54 Roosie...

Wheaties were flowing... then 10 minutes later.... 1923 Merc...

The day totalled 47 coins... I did nab a Sac dollor and 2 generic gaming tokens as well... I have to clean up the wheaties... I can read 1/2 of them and they are in the 40s-50s...

5 Silver in one day! That is a new record for me.... HAPPY DANCE!!

Monday Mar 1st:

Hello all!

I headed back to the site I was at yesterday after work... I only had 90 minutes of light and some lights on the side to maybe extend that a little...

My 1st unearthed item was a sterling silver penant...

Then out popped the 1945 Washington... I so knew this was a silver quarter @ 6 It was pegged on 12/46 and had that sweetest minelab silver sound...

It was almost 20 minutes before I had my first target to recover and close to 60 minutes before the 1962 Roosie appeared...

I started to hit a section with wheaties and was hoping there was some silver left... I was not dissapointed... 1948 Roosevelt...

Hey Paul, It seems that you are having the same problem that Angel is having. That darn machine keeps finding silver when all we really want are those zinc pennies rofl You better send that one back and ask them for one that works right ;) It is a silver magnet and I see you are having no problem finding that out. Something about seeing 12-46 on the display, makes the heart rate increase just a bit lol Nice series of hunts and many more to come....the year is still very, very young. Congrats.
