New Coil Pays Off for Silver #68!

[amxfred]

Got home from work today and I spotted the package on my front porch. My new Sunray X-5 had arrived!! Couldn't wait to try it out so I changed clothes and headed for a local park. First good signal was a 1953-S Wheatie at 5 inches. Then Dennis showed up and told me to work over by the old tree and he was correct. A solid 12-13 at 4 inches and there lies a very nice 1910 V-Nickel. Oh yeah! Then I decided to work my way back to the truck because it was starting to get dark and I hit a nice solid 12-40 at 6 inches and out pops a 1934 Wheatie. I filled the Wheatie hole and took about three steps and the little 5 inch coil started to scream. A solid 12-45 at 5 inches. I flipped the plug and there was the beautiful glimmer of silver. A 1937 Merc! Silver #68 for 2012. I love this hobby. Happy hunting to all!

what silver did you end up getting? And have you learned more of the token yet? Is it old?
