Big Silver... x 2

Ron and I were finally able to put together a hunt with forum member dalewestaby. :clapping: Thanks for driving the distance
to join us.

In October I researched a park in Wisconsin that looked to have some potential for 1930's and newer coins. With six full hours of search time today, I invited Dale to give it a try with us. Surprisingly some targets came up for Ron and Dale that predated the park. :happydance01:

Ron pulled an 186? bullet shot Two Cent piece along with a couple of silver dimes.
Dale had a good day as well... but I'll let him share the news.

The highlight of my day was when I searched tightly around a young tree. Picked up a shallow high tone, right next to the base and wedged in between some exposed roots. Not enough room to pinpoint with my big coil, so I used the X-1 probe to pinpoint and cut a shallow plug revealing two big silver edges. I pulled the first WLH out and called Dale over to see the other one still in the hole.

At the end of the day, I had a couple WLH's, two dimes, bus token and a sterling stamped ring.

A great time for sure and look forward to hunting with you again Dale. :beerbuddy:
 
WOW! :omg:

I think I would let out a big WOO HOO if I ever found two Walkers in the same hole! That's incredible, Joe!

I'm really happy for you, bud! <:

Nice silver dimes, wheaties, and silver ring too! thumbsup01

The two-cent piece makes you wonder what was there before the park. :thinkingabout:

I'm glad you got to hunt with Dale. I am anxious to hear his report.

Congrats on the fantastic day! |:cheering:
