    ANOTHER PRIZE HAS JUST BEEN ADDED: First Place will also receive this 1622 1/24 Thaler Hammered Silver Coin donated by DaddyDigger!




    Thanks to everyone who has entered the contest so far! Nobody has guessed the exact number of silver coins nor the exact face value yet, so if you haven't entered yet there is still a chance you could win if you post your guesses! ONLY ONE DAY LEFT!

    Wow, that is a LOT of silver dug Tony.

    Thank you very much! I've enjoyed my 1'st 6 months of detecting with you guys. A fantastic site and community to support it.
