[cjon455]

Hey guys,
Met up with dave today to the spot where he scored his killer barbers the other day, we got there nice and early and started gridding, my first target was a wheat which was promising, next after that I got a wierd choppy signal next to a huge boulder, the vdi's were all over the place, to my surprise it was a paper thin 1794 Spanish silver!!! my first Spanish silver and oldest silver to date!!!, next target was the 1864 2 center, This one has real nice detail, I managed an indian and more wheats before grabbing an 1838 holed large cent to complete the trifecta! 4 silvers including the Spanish silver, 2 center, indian, and some relics!! I had a blast, thanks for looking and hh!!


now for the funny part, I lost the Spanish silver in daves truck , now I get to drive 20 something miles to go get it lol!!

I would be happy with that 2 center. Take it out a couple times per week and look at it, take a toothpick to it again. Just keep repeating that.

Awesome stuff there cjon. I would have been sick if I had misplaced that Spanish silver too. The 2 center has a lot of detail left. Good job!

Ummm, I'm afraid that's not quite good enough. "safe til home".

I once had a beautiful silver quarter get knocked off the table it was on, stood up on it's hind legs and rolled thru THREE doorways, down a flight of stairs, and right thru a heating grate. I SWEAR! If it had made my car it was going to drive itself back to where I found it!

You better watch the things you find very, very carefully! They WILL disappear!
