Thank you. Really have the bug to get out there and hunt. Must be infectious.
Wowee! Was that in your yard?? Maybe you want to quit now
I found that same date and remember putting a bit of "art" on its face with my shovel.
Congratulations and welcome to the group!

Fantastic first hunt. The first day I got my CTX3030, I found a Barber half as well in the first 5 minutes of using the new detector. I had the ATPro for about 1 year prior, never found silver (my fault, not the equipment).
Always had the bug, when when I found a Barber half, totally into it again. Enjoy the new hobby and keep sending in the finds. Great group of people on this forum.
