It’s been cold out, and a bit busy for me, so the hunts have been limited. Nonetheless, there is no way in hell I was going to sit during the winter without 2008’s first silver coins in the bag. Earlier in the month I hunted with Tom and Joe and managed a silver ring and well towards the end in a desperate bid not to go home skunked, went back to a really small park that had spit out a Rosie. I was lucky enough to find another. This past Saturday I headed towards another small park that Tom and I have worked over pretty well, just to get to scratch the itch, not really expecting to find anything. Stuck and camouflaged right next to and under a root appeared a silver quarter which probably took me the longest to extract of all coins I have dug. Were it not for video editing, you guys would probably fall asleep watching me trying to find that thing. After finding it, my suspicions as to why it was still there were somewhat confirmed. Photo of the Rosie and ring attached, the quarter you’ll see in the video which shows the only two times I've managed to be filming as a silver coin is being dug. Everything else in the past for me has either been a wheat popping out or I had the camera sitting too far out from where I was digging.

Nice Video.

What kind of digger do you use? Just curious as I really need to upgrade mine. I have always used the cheapie garden type specials but they do not last.

Happy Hunting,

Scott (Mich)

I think it is a lowes special and really good, like mine. Hope it's ok to jump in here. You did so much with great video.

Post it! I think the best quality of a video is not the finds, but the ability for the video to take you along the hunt. To make you feel like you were there. If anything, my videos lack in that aspect. Too much editing. Thanks for the comment, and I am glad you enjoyed it (Them).

Thanks Harry, listen bud, I'm going to be in a Bronx Park tomorrow extremely early, I'm talking sunrise to about 10am. At around 10-10:30am, I have to be home to my daugther as she wakes up. If you're interested, PM me for details. This area is not going to give you numerous silver, but you may find one or two. I took my buddy Tom there to break his silver slump and it worked. I myself found a rosie, and that was on a tough day where we had 1-2 inches of snow covering the ground. You let me know.

Best,
Ricardo
