all,

well got out today briefly before the storm clouds rolled in, saw some fresh cut grass by my subdivision so had a feeling to check it out...about 20 mins into it, had a nice tone, dug it and about 4-5" down found this 1957 silver quarter, first silver find for me..yahoo...lol...a few feet away got another tone..dug it not as deep found another quarter...looked in worse condition than the 57 thought it might of been older after cleaning it a bit saw it wasa 1990..lol..well gonna hit a few places tommorrow...hope the pics come out..gregg

Congratulations! Finding silver is a milestone in detecting. Just don't be disappointed if you don't find it every trip! My first was a 1923 Mercury Dime and I haven't found another one yet in the last 5 months! But when I look at or think about that dime it gives me incentive to keep looking, and I will hit it again one day. JIM
 

WTG, on your first silver coin. I have not found any silver coins yet, :'( but i will. I guess you have to hunt to find it, takes location research too I guess. Seems around here someone went around and collected all the silver coins.

Keep at it and HH!!

Way to go on your first silver. Maybe you can search over the area some more. When there's one there's usually more.
