Folks, I'm so happy I could just cry. :'( It's been about two months now I think since I found a silver (wilver) coin. Today at lunch while detecting at the old farm, I got my slump-buster! After digging numerous rusty square head nails, I dug a 1940 wheat in an area I've hit over and over before. At least it was a coin I kept saying to myself.
I then worked through an area of bent over (wilted) daylilies and BINGO, I had a good signal. Expecting another wheat, I dug down about 6" and under a tree root out popped a 1945 Quarter. Yaba-daba-doo!
I know it's a common wilver, but I'll take it!
I'm starting to notice a pattern here. I seem to do better on the short lunch hunts than I do on the all day adventures. Last week a CW 3-ringer , and today a wilver quarter. My kind of lunch. :-)
Have a great week,
MM

How many luch breaks can you talk them into at work? Way to go, and keep the silver coming!
 

It's probably your new DD coil. That soil is so soft.

I'll bet there's some old coins in the small field to the left (facing the house). Maybe some seated coins!

Gotta get down deeeeep! :D


Congratulations on the not so common silver!

I told you WILVER was coming, dude! Wilver is wilver, so I will take it anyday of the week, month, year, decade, century, etc. I bet you are loving that DD....;) :D.
 

Congrats on breaking that silver slump Miner! I say get back out there during your break! Maybe a ten minute hunt will yield a walking half dollar! LOL
Best o' luck man

DD's. Don't leave home without em'. ;D
It seems to be working. If I could just find another coin into the 1800's, that would make my day. Plenty of 1800's buttons, but the coins are hiding from me. :'(

Nice find! My silver coin slump is also a long one...about 3 months...keep it up! ;)
 

Wilver, wilver, wilver every where he said. And true enough MM pop's up with a 1945 wilver quarter! :o

Nothing like the shine of silver in dirt to make your day! Any mint on the quarter?

No mint, just a 45.
I'm thinking the rain we had recently really helped pick up a better signal this time when I hit that area.
Thank God I got there before Ridley did, or I'd never live it down! ;D
