First Silver for 2010

Went to the Cape(Cod) over the weekend.Was going to do some low tide detecting,actually I did,no luck.But I happened to look up and noticed the ocean had been eating away at a few back yards abutting the beach,and i figured never know.Wasn,t long running the XLT over the sand and I got a hit.After shacking the sand out of my scoop sitting at the bottom was a 1940 wheatie.That was encouraging.I then picked up 4 clads as i moved along and then bingo.I digs the scoop into the sand shake it out,and there sitting on the bottom was the beautifull sight of silver.Turns out to be a 1941 Washington Quarter.Another half dozen clads and I packed it in.Will be hitting those spots in the future,along with a few more.

Congrats, a silver quarter is the perfect way to start the year thumbsup01 I'm still waiting for my first silver of the year. Of course it would help if I could get out with my detector :bangahead01:

Sounds like an excellent weekend!

If we only knew how much silver and gold was being tossed around them dunes, I think we would be amazed. One thing about the ocean, it's always hiding and exposing the finds. Where else can you get a new penny next to a silver coin all at 1 inch :yes: I think you have a great spot there and hopefully it will produce for you. A great start to the new year. thumbsup01

WTG!!! Still looking for my first silver out here on the west coast.

Great find.... still waiting to just get out.. still cold here. RickO
