My other finds are 12 Boy scout slides and 1 cub scout. 1 ring. 1 baseball token. 1 boy scout token. 2 pins, and 2 flashlights.
It was great to see everyone again and hunt at a great location.

Hi there, Well I stayed and hunted Monday also. So 4 days of hunting. Sunday rained all day but I found most of the silver in the rain. Monday was a great day for hunting, the weather was just right. Thanks for looking. :)

The knees are not to bad but my forearm was cramping up. That merk is a 1940 and the best shape Ive ever found. It was 9 deep and looks like it is fresh out of the roll. I wish my camera would get a good shot of it. Thanks for looking

Great finds!! How was the Vision working for you, did the deeper targets sound off good and solid??

What you found in 4 days is about a quarter of what I found all last year, sounds like you had a lot of fun and successs at a great site thumbsup01.

Nice silver (tho that one Washington went thru something weird). I wonder how much the rain helps. I've noticed the V3 seems to perform better right after a rain. I guess that's true of most machines.

Hi, Thanks for looking. 4 of the silvers I found were deep and in a grassy area. Most of the silver was in the wood and it dosnt seem to go down as much. I am very pleased with the vision and have not had any updates done. Its still the first software. The deeper coins were frome 9 to 7 deep. the sound is what I am digging. The information I am getting on my search screen is broken up and indicates some iron on the deeper coins. The pinpoint helps on determining the type of metal and weather to dig along with the sound. After useing the vision for over a year and having a test coin garden in my yard ive kinda figured out what to look and listen for. My DFX has been a great machine but it hasnt left the closet since I got the vision.

WOW! Thats quite impressive to say the least. I swear the boy scouts lose a ton of clad for some reason. And all those neckerchief slides. You did outstanding. thumbsup01
