I went out early on Saturday morning with Smittyman. He was sporting his lucky "silver fox" hairdo, which can mean only one thing: Some silver is going to show up!
We have been hunting a place where an old neighborhood once stood. There is a lot of trash in the ground, especially aluminum 40oz bottle caps. The former tenants were a thirsty lot.
There is an especially bad area, right under a power line. The machine buzzes from the power line and there is a lot of aluminum trash in the ground. The other boys found nothing here. I decided to dig ALL repeatable signals, and see what happened.
After about (30) holes, I saw this gentleman looking up at me. I could immediately see that it was a silver Washington quarter.
Thrilled that my strategy yielded some silver, I proceeded ahead digging all repeatable signals. About a half hour later, I was greeted with the site of another silver quarter in the dirt!
Neither of the coins was a "good" signal. If you are not digging a lot of holes, you are missing good targets! There is treasure in the trash!
YTD silver coins: 30
Thanks for looking and best of luck on your hunts.
