Yes, many years ago at a coin shop.
I read they started during the CW because people were hoarding silver. We'd dig 'em at cellar holes as we dig anything that beeps. It would be weird though as whatever its VDI it would lock in to a specific number, it wouldn't jump around like shotgun shells.

I think Noah (Tim) found one while detecting with Digger Don. That is the only one I have seen on here. The only way I might find one is if it laying next to a seated dime or another coin.
Detectors I use: Minelab Equinox 900 & Manticore
Favorite finds I have made:
1,000+ silver coins
92pcs of 1700's Trade Era Silver
Copper Culture Indian Artifacts
125+ War of 1812 Era buttons and relics
My wife (probably should have started with that one)
