First Silver of the Year (x2)

[carolinachief]

Started out this morning by going through my change jar and located a 1963 Rosie. Great start to the morning but the day only got better. After work I went out and checked out another field right by my house. Found a bunch of brick and concrete where a house used to be. Started swinging around a little just checking things out. Hit a couple of signals that turned out to be aluminum pieces and then got a good signal that bounced from 50c to $1 at 2 inches. I figured it was just more trash. Cut a plug anyway and the signal was no longer in the hole. Checked my plug and it was still reading loud and clear. Broke the plug apart and in one small piece still had a signal. Turned it over and saw a large silver edge. Pulled out my first ever SILVER Half, 1901-O Barber. The year is starting off great. Happy Hunting all.
