Wow, was it ever a beautiful day for a hunt or what? Brett and I finally checked out a few areas of the park that we've been scoping out. The first area was producing old wheats, a junk ring and a earring, but no silver. I'm sure there's some there, but we were looking for a quicker fix and Brett moved on to the next spot. By the time I caught up with him he had already pulled his first silver for the day. Within a couple minutes he had another. :o It was time for me to get it in gear! He kept telling me to go put on my bigger coil, 'cause the coins there were too deep for my 6x10DD. :laughing9: Well I was just getting ready to make a coil swap and heard a nice deep dime signal come through. I had the plug opened up to 7" and the target was just starting to sing on the probe. I called Brett over to listen to the probe singing with the headphone unplugged and said "So this coil won't go deep huh?" ;D At 8", this purdy lady pops out. 1885, but no S, Dang! Ended up with 6 wheats, '10, two '20's, '39, '44 and one unreadable, flattened out to make the earring.

Thanks for looking and HH!

extremely awesome seated dime,wtg! i haven't found one at the parks yet!
 

I was having a great time once I got those two silver back to back... but when you got that seated shortly after you burst my bubble for sure. You can hear it in the video we took :)

Congrats on your second seated dime! She is a beaut!

Oh yeah, thanks for backing me up with shovel-in-hand today... the crazyies were coming out of the woodwork today for sure.

Just make sure you have your shovel, Bob!

Wow!!! Congrats on that great seated, John!!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :icon_king:

I can't imagine what it will be like when I e v e n t u a l l y dig one of my own...

Nice job! :wink:

You guys and your cartoons - I'm still trying to get that Baby Huey theme song out of my head! :-\ ;D
 

Nice going John, you a keeper there!
 

Man that is AWESOME bud - BIGTIME CONGRATS!!!!!!! :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:
 

Thanks guys!
When you dig a nice coin you tend to forget about the other relics left behind in your pouch.
Here's my coolest buckle yet...found before the silver started flowing and forgot all about it.

Great Seated :thumbsup:

After Brett's quarter, it's your turn to dig a Seated half 8)
 

Wow, great seated dime! That one looks even better than your first one. That 6X10 seems to work well. My next two purchases, after I can cash in all the clad, will be a 6X10 DD and also the coil smaller than the 9.5.

Tell me, was there a lot of trash in the immediate vicinity of the dime? Or did the DFX pick it right up without a hiccup?

Congrats!

Joe

Thanks Joe! Yeah you know the parks, trash everywhere! I have my sens. and preamp settings as high as possible without getting false signals. Run correlate mode, keep sweep speed at 2, filters at 3, silent search on and slow waaay down in productive areas. Too fast of a swing and the shallow trash will mask the deeper goods. Your M6 has the same power (if not more) as the DFX from what I understand. I'd be happy to share my complete program with you if you get a hold of a DFX sometime.
