Works for me...
 

I'd call it a good day
 

I think I should have written Santa and asked him to bring me a war nickel next year, lol. I read about coins that people who have been detecting for 15-20 years haven't found and I have. Maybe war nicks will be my coin I'm still waiting on in 15 years. Good luck tomorrow if you go. Is that a flat button or a toasted clad quarter?

That spot that looks like solder is why I asked. Looks brass in those new pics.
 

yeah I don't know, hard to tell, and by the way war nickels are over rated lol, this makes 7 on the year for me lol!!
 

Mods, we have a "like"button....can we get a "hate" button for replies?
 

First hit eh? Sounds like your park was saying Welcome Back!!!

Nice!

Ya know it was nice just to hear that sweet tone in my headphones again!
 

*update* put a video in the beginning of the thread
 

Looks like you had a great year.

This was my best year in my short detecting "career", I've been at it since summer of 2012, and I'm on my 3rd detector already, I'm itching for #4 (etrac). I got the most silver yet this year (67) last year only 30

Thanks!!
