    Big and small silver

    Done some tweeking to my settings on my E-trac since the only coins that has been found there has been halfs I tried farous 2 tone with only from 38 to 48 down to all but bottom 3 lines and I did not know there was so much iron in this field I could hear all the iron but when it hit a target it would stand out it had the respose of my At pro in iron with better depth and ID got #27 and 28 half from this site <: <: and after I dug them I rescanned both holes was a solid iron tone hope I missed more of them lol Then hit a old picnic and party site and dug a deep (for me) merc at from coil to dime about 9in I learned that at that depth it read more like a clad than silver good learning day for me |

    Two Walkers in one day?

    That makes for a spectacular hunt! I have found the E-Trac's see through technology to be invaluable. So many times I have found good coins in the same hole with iron or junk metal.

    Congrats on the great silver haul!

    <: Just fantastic Spike!
    It is incredible that you squeaked out two more half dollars here.
    Nice job on experimenting with your settings to maximize output of your machine.
    Congrats on the two beautiful ladies... plus the Merc too.
