I had a brief hour today to myself so I went to the local park. This area is in an old section of town and although I have been there several times, I haven't come away with anything but clad. Well, today was it for me. I was digging some deep clad, maybe 6-8 inches, and getting more and more frustrated. Then I got one of those deep coin signals that meant I was going to pull a deep barber or seated dime when I was in CT and MA.
So I dug almost twelve inches, and found.... a memorial penny. :bangahead01:
Here's a photo of my twelve-inch digger in the hole, with the handle just a few centimeters above being flush with the ground.
Maybe the ground has been redone, although it sure did not look like it. Anyway, at that point I packed it up and went home in frustration. I think I am done detecting until I get back to the Northeast or else Iowa. I am beyond frustrated. :bangahead01:
Oh well, at least I know I can find very deep coins with this awesome detector!!! thumbsup01 I'm just not in the right place.

That park had to be filled in and I don't think it will ever produce any silver, except maybe a ring. Do some reading or talk to old guys lol They will tell you where they used to picnic or play ball. At least you are guaranteed to find some silver there. Hang in there kid, the year is young 
I won't give up....
