Went to a local park this morning I've been hunting on and off since 1980. Found my first silver their 30 years ago with a bottom of the line Garrett. A 1945-s quarter... Decided to hit the trashiest area of the park with my Fisher 1266, disc. turned up to 8... Got a loud signal and thought beer can... Glad I dug! It was about 4 inches deep... Re-checked the hole and got another signal, turned out to be a corroded 1936 wheatie... The half has some surface scratches but not by me. Thanks for looking and Good Luck to you all!

Tom, I recon a LOT of folks hope for that, I'd settle for a quart of dimes! :laughing9: :laughing9:
 

the last walker I found, I thought the same thing (beer can). boy was I surprised when a '34 walker came out at only 1/2" deep. I dang near passed it up because I had been finding a lot of can slaw in the same area at the same depth. great find... congrats! :thumbsup:
 

Congratulation's Tom :thumbsup: Still looking for a liitle better than a Kennedy :tongue3:
 

Very nicely done--congrats!

All the best,

Lanny
