Finally got the nerve to ask neighbors for permission to detect and glad I did. Dug the toy gun and old mascara container first after a few mason jar lids and then got a nice tight signal on the 350 dug down and out pops Ben! Sweet first silver half ever! Recheck the hole and fish out the merc! Now I'm super excited two firsts for me! Beep along a little more and get another nice signal but it's big so figure it's a copper pipe or something and out pops the silver plated Oneida napkin holder I'm guessing?? Beep along a little more and another nice tight coin signal shaking as I dig this one and pop out a lucky lindy Michigan mutual liability insurance token. Signals dried up after that but I was happy! All this was in an open field because it's so dry here I didn't want to dig in the yard calling for rain tomorrow can't wait to see what their lawn will bring me!

Oh when I rescanned the hole and heard that sweet high tone I stood right up and did a couple nervous laps around the hole to calm my nerves for what I thought would be the inevitable disappointment of pulling a penny out of the hole, I about died when the merc popped out
 

Congrats x 2 for you mate. Great score on the old silvers and cool token coin. Also good on you to wait until the property owner's lawn is nice and moist before digging into it. Patches of dead dried up sod looks mighty bad in a nice green lawn. Your time will come.:headbang:

Big congrats on the big silver! Nice merc and token too! Always nice to make some finds like that. Asking permission
the 1st time is always the hardest but gets so much easier after that.
 

Very nicely done with the silvers, and getting a couple of firsts out of the same hole.

I trade you some rain for some dry weather, we've had a very wet year in Eastern Ontario!
 

Congrats on your silver spill, and your first Half Dollar. Its always nice to see big silver come out of the hole.
 

Great finds, Congrats! Yes we need some rain here and got some last night. Dirt is like powder.
 

Very nice, congrats on a wicked spill!
