Today was a sorta a sad day as I think about the buddy's I've lost over the years but good in that they were honored today by others. Well the morning started early with 2 different services to go to then a long march in the parade. After getting home the wife and I were hanging out and I started playing with the CTX in the front yard well under this big root left from a tree I took down I got a signal I have picked it up before but never messed with it. It was a bouncy kinda junky signal. seeing it was the only one I decided to dig it. Thank god it was in my yard because I tore it up. Well holy crap I let my wife pull it out and she started yelling honey it's a half dollar it's a half dollar but she wouldn't give it back I didn't know what it was for the first 4 min.

Scouts out!

Thats a sweet half and great pics of the dig.
 

it seems to me that you md only to find nice things cause of the value of them. that is stealing!!!!!!!!!

Yes I do that's why it's called TREASURE hunting very good job! And I even ask people for permission first in person and even share it with the owners of the property if they want stuff I find.

Dig until your arm falls off
 

recondigger, what a wonderful experience all the way around, the day and the find and your wife! It must have been great/crazy/funny for you to watch her go a little eccentric for awhile just because of a coin you detected and she got to pull out of the ground for you. All in all, I think everyone had a great day. Thank you for your service to the country and thank you for sharing your wonderful find/event!.....................63bkpkr

Thanks it was great and she always picks on me about metal detecting (except the days when I bring home gold rings) now she said she wants to go and try it!
