Hey Diggers,
Got lucky and pulled another silver coin today and it's a good one! This gives me 49 for the year. A 1676 French 4 Sols minted in Paris! It was a faint signal at about 8 inches. Was sounding like foil and barely ringing up as a 52 on my XP Deus. Best wishes to everyone for 2019!

Another beauty. I know that in the near future you will probably see a thread which asks us to show off our two best finds of 2018.....good luck with that. :hystericallaugh:

Congrats on another beautiful silver coin from the 1600s, Dave! I am running out of superlatives to describe your finds! You are doing better than most detectorists who have lived in the UK or Europe their entire lives. What a monumental year you have had!

Tony, you and I met for the first time in 2012. After detecting with you a few times my finds suddenly started getting WAY better. It's because I watched how you detected and started emulating your style. I still detect that way to this day. Some of the credit for my fortunes over here goes to you my friend.

What a nice thing to say, Dave. I must have taught you and Don too well because you both outhunt me on a regular basis now! :envious:

Before I'd even met you the first time, you were like the god of the midwest! Still trying to match you buddy.
