    My first two hunts of 2010

    These are some pictures of my first two hunts for 2010. I found 4 silver Washington's all of last year and now I have 4 in my first two hunts of this year. I hope this is a sign of things to come. I also found 8 wheats a couple dollars in clad a toy gun and a old brass button.
    The quarter dates are 1940, 1943, 1952-D, 1957 the dime is 1957. Thanks for looking.

    Nice finds FF43. Gotta love that silver. Last year I found a toy gun just like that buried about six inches deep in some mossy type of stuff. Must have had great drainage as the gun was still mostly shiny and it worked as well. Congrats to you. thumbsup01

    Either you got better at detecting or that V3 is sniffing out that silver, or both. Congrats on tying all of last year's silver Washingtons already thumbsup01 I hope it will be a banner year for you.

    Yeah, that V3 looks like a great machine, too bad its sooo expensive. I saw it for around $1400- $1600 . I guess $1600 is the package deal (headphones and something else, can't remember.

    Nice finds ... silver is very welcome. Silver quarters seem to be getting scarce when I review the various forum finds. RickO
