Nox 600 nets me my first silver of the year!

[eman1000]

Only had time for a short hunt but got a bouncy 25/26 in a gravel road next to an old school house circa 1890s. Dug down 3/4" and out came this 1917 Merc.

I always forget to check the gravel but with all the rain it was easy to dig.

I live in MO. Nothing but rocks...And I dig thru them..... but almost always pass up a gravel lot/driveway/etc. Why is that? nice silver!!
