- Primary Interest:
- Metal Detecting
My kid had my car and my Equinox was unavailable, so I grabbed my trusty old AT Pro and walked to a town project near my house, which involved truckloads of fill. The spot never had houses, farms, or a road, but I was hoping that maybe the fill was surplus from a sidewalk or road project, and that perhaps there was a coin or two in the mix. I was detecting for only about five minutes when I got a screaming 88 high tone on the AT Pro. I prepared to dig, when I saw the half sitting right on the surface of the hard packed dirt. I wish I thought to take a picture of it on the ground, but I was too excited to think straight. The reverse was caked in dirt, but the obverse looked good, as shown in the photo. This is my first silver surface find ever. There were lots of other signals, but I only dug a Lincoln penny and some scrap. I’ll probably try it again soon. Happy hunting!
