Big Silver

[jvav]

Was killing time tonight trying out the new Platypus coil I picked up during the off season and also moved into a new house this spring and is an old early 1900 farm house. I already have pulled 5 silver dimes, 3 indians, and a bunch of wheaties. I went out near the edge of the driveway and in the 2 tone ferrous option I got a hit in the 12-43 12-44 range at 2-4 in. Thought penny maybe wheat probably memorial being that shallow. Boy was I wrong out popped this lovely girl. My first hope not my last. The pic with the washingtons is from yesterday I went to a spot I have pounded and pulled out 2 wash, a rosie and 2 buffs. The 1926 buff was in the same hole as the 46 wash.

Here's the other side. I noticed last night when I was rinsing it off I knicked it on the C in America.

Congrats on the cartwheel. I'm surprised it rang in so low, it should have been squarely up at the 01FE line.

Congratulations. Man, losing one of those during the hard times (1920's-30's) would have sucked... Enjoy mining your yard! Sub

Nice digs. Big coins are always nice.

It was getting dark maybe I thought 12 and it was actually a 1. Just so used to seeing 12:44 and 1245
