    First silver!!!

    I used the high trash program today with the audio off if im not mistaken. It would only let me hear the targets in the ranges I selected. It paid off as I found my first silver coin today at about 3 inches in depth! A very nice 1942 Mercury dime with mint luster! I also found a 100 peso mexican coin and 92 cents worth of clad. No too bad a day. Im looking forward to tomorrow as I have got some new tips from the book of Jack. Thanks for all of your support and I look forward to talking again.

    You are on your way! I have seen people go a couple years and not find their first Mercury Dime. You have done it in very short order. Congratulations! Patience is the key. Thank for sharing your hunt. Way to go.
