Well after finding my first silver of the year on school property back in January it's been a flatliner since then. No luck in parks, schools, etc.... Only on personal properties was I able to break my 4 month curse with 3 silver coins. Found first one with DesPlaines_IL_SilverBob at a property we thought was cleaned up. BTW this is after slappin on the Super 12 coil. I love it over my 9.5 stock coil. Less or same emi interference as stock, pinpoints the same and goes deeper and less falsing.
1934 Quarter, 1950 Quarter and a 1936 Mercury Dime.
also 5 Wheaties and a couple of tokens. Oh yeah 2 nickels,7 dimes, 5 quarters and 31 crappy memorials.

Friday I went out to a local school to kill a half hour as the evening was creeping in and in under 1 minute in the woodchips I found a 24" maybe 14k white gold, made in italy necklace chain weighing 17.5 grams. I say maybe because I feel it may be either white gold or a counterfeit nickel chain dipped in gold. We'll see tomorrow.
