Still adjusting to my new hours so have been struggling to get out. Usually rely on the weekends but a wedding got in the way this weekend so I took a day off work. Had made plans to do some new locales but opted for and old standby instead. Had the whole day so tried a few different spots in the area and worked really slow. Found a nice bunch of wheats which usually indicates I left plenty behind and even hit a really solid, albeit lower 12-44, Mercury dime signal. One real tough signal I dug I thought turned out to be a thin silver ring but as I cleared the dirt it was actually a wore SLQ. All in all it was a nice hunt on a gorgeous fall day. Three silvers, 7 wheats, a 1902 "V" nickel and an older Buffalo. I'll see what this weekend will bring. Keep swinging, Wisconsin Digger

Great group of keepers and I like the way you didn't let a day spent at a wedding get in the way of your detecting. Very nice standby spot.

Nice finds. There have been a few days I been desperate and just taken off from work. Was the quarter deeper or was it on edge to give more of a dime reading?

Hard to say if on edge but definitely was deep 8-9"

We all need to have an old standby spot like that! Nice finds! Days are getting short now!
