My Best Silver Day Ever! I don't think I'll ever top it!

Hello everyone, right after lunch today my friend Steve called me and asked if I wanted to meet up with hiim and hunt an old school he just got permission to hunt. I told him I had a few things to take care of and I would meet him on the site. I was there for maybe 20 minutes when I got my first silver signal, it was a rosie, I went a little further and got another good tone and got a merc. at this point I'm starting to feel bad because Steve hadn't gotten any silver yet, do I told him to finish my pass and I would move to another spot. well, I moved and the first signal I got was another merc! I did this several times and every time I would move to another area so Steve could hunt the areas that were producing I would find more and more silver! so finally I gave up and just started gridding the area and to make a long story short, I found a total of 14 silvers(2 quarters and 12 dimes) this is my best silver day ever! my one day silver record was 8 silvers in one day, I kinda blew that outta the water! LOL!!! I couldn't even tell you how many wheats we pulled today! my pouch is full! and so is Steve's!! I also got an early wheat spill with an Indian penny in it! I may have gotten others, but there were so many pennies and silver signals I just started putting everything that wasn't silver in the outer pocket of my pouch. I dug three full pouches of trash! towards the end of the hunt I was just digging every signal that wasn't iron so I could get things out out of the way. we will definitely be going back to that spot!!!! and before anybody says I was hogging the silver, after I got to five silvers,(I literally was trying to not find silver) Steve and our buddy Chris(Goldinwater) were rooting me on to see if I could have my best silver day ever. for some reason I was just ON today.

p.s. I would like to say thanks to Steve if he reads this, I thanked him profusely at the site, but I just want it in writing! Steve's a great guy, and he did get two silvers, and merc and a rosie.

What a great hunt you had. Congrats!! How old was the schoolyard?

Very nice 14 pcs. silver. Plus, I suspect that thing at the bottom could be silver too. What is that? Maybe a silver drawer pull?

You guys got a nice little spot there. Congrats on all the silver.

Hello Again everyone, to answer some of the questions: I found lot's of wheats and relics, I'm just too tired tonight to go out to my truck and get them out and count them and post them. LOL!!!

and the silver item at the bottom of my pic is a sterling broach.
 

Re: My Best Silver Day Ever! I don't think I'll ever top it!

Nice. I usually never get more than 1 silver every time I hunt. A lot of times I get no silver, so this is amazing.

I just stared at your photo for an extremely long time. Congrats.
 

Re: My Best Silver Day Ever! I don't think I'll ever top it!

AWESOME! And with the good vibes you put out in all directions, you'll probably top it too! Some day when you least expect it! Or maybe three silver dollars in one day instead! Way to go! Andi
