I found my first silver coin today at an obscure beach

[detectorbishop]

decided to try out a little beach by me, more of a park on the water, lol. After digging a bunch of pull tabs, I got a weird low tone on the Garrett at pro and decided to dig it. Turned out to be a junk ring. Got the same tone and found another one right next to it. A few minutes later a came across a pocket spill of 45 cents in clad and a bunch more pull tabs. All the while its pouring out. I was about to give it up and remembered a tip from someone here that said before you quit, dig three more targets. Sure glad I listened cause the very next dig was a 1939 mercury dime in pretty good shape I think. the next target turned out to be a pocket knife I still need to clean up. Thanks again for all the advice I've received from so many folk here!
