I'm sure you've read Al and Tim's posts already, I don't have a computer at home, that way I do not work when there. So I could not post until this morning. While my find is not as great as Angel's :angelic: coin spill :shocked04:. It was still an amazing find in my book. So here's the story from my prospective. >:tongue:
We were hitting an area up in God's country. Nothing really coming out of the ground till Al found the broach. Which was a great find ( I know he's beating himself up since he didn't find any silver :blackeye
( But you're still ahead in silver count...I guess I have quality over quantity :tongue Anyways, back to the strory and enough 
oke:. I was gridding an area and was making my last sweep before moving to a different area. Got a nice something 47/48 number. It wasn't a deep signal, I was thinking aluminum. I digging down and see a flash of silver, I reach in and wipe the dirt. I literally jump and and down and start screaming...and yes the neighbor across the street came running over to see what the comotion was all about. And there in my hands was an 1869 Seated Half Dollar <: :happydance01: happydance02 eace:
I kept gridding the area, pulled some wheats. Near the base of a tree I got a something 47/48 again, deep, I was thinking oh yeah more silver about a foot down I get this large old D buckel, I look around to show and no one is around, they all disappeared on me. Then I got a 12-24 signal. I'm now digging thoseiffy as long as it repeats signals, especially after I saw Tim dig a very iffy signal and pull a Barber half out. This one paid off.....an 1876 Indian...with 2 nails in the same hole.
Al's batteries died, so we had to leave to replenish him. On the way back we stopped at an OPen house at an 1830's house. We got permission to hit it, so we got his batteries and flew back. tiny yard and think we each got 3 swings in, but it yielded a nice wheatie spill for Al, and I managed 2 early wheats in one hole (1910 and 1920). Definatly a good day :yes:
I'm also posting a pic of a coin spill I found on Sat morning. I cut the plug and pulled up and coins were everywhere...unfortunatly it was all clad. >:{
