    more silver from the church

    I spent over 3 more hours at the old church again this morning 9-29-11 and got a reading of 76-78 7deep it was about a 3 piece of copper tubeing,then I got a reading of 81-82 6 deep and it was an 1872 seated dime,then came two more pieces of copper tubeing.I had been there for 3 hours and getting tired so I headed for the car,it was about 10 feet from the car I gets this real quite high tone,I looked and it was reading 93-95 at 9deep I thought, no it can't be,so I took my time digging it and it was all of 9 deep, I got a view of silver,it turned out to be my first seated half this year, WOW, 1854-o ... thanks for looking and ,,,HH out there,,

    Re: more silver from the church

    JT that church yard has been very good to you. I think that someone is looking out for you, and doesn't want you to work too hard. But, then again 9 inches is a job. Congratulations on a very nice find.
