Today I hit up a cornfield that has been producing some oldies. Last time I was there there was a spot to muddy to search but today It was much better. I started getting some junk signals but in any old spot I dig em. Then I got a solid pulltab signal dug down about 2 inches and pooped out what I thought was a small button I took a closer look and could see a star could it be, Yes my first 3 cent silver!!!!!!!!!! Silver coin number 45 for the season. I also found a fatty IHP and the point I got the day before from a different site. Thanks for looking and HH.

Congrats!! On my (lonnggg) wish list:)
 

Congrats,

They are a thrill to find. You know your unit well if you can find those.

Nice little Trime! Really would like one of those. Good hit.
I wonder if an HP bath would help the penny? Maybe it just needs a good soak in some hot water first.

No an HP bath wouldn't do much good its a Copper Nickel variety a fatty. Also its toasted. Thanks for the suggestion though. :icon_thumleft:

I was just hunting around the Internet to see how it would ring up on the E-Trac. After I gave up, I saw your post & it answered my question! :icon_thumleft:
