It didn't rain Sunday so I took the dog and my detector and off we went to one of my old standby places . This place has been hit hard , I only had 1 nickel and a few pulltabs and trash after the first 3 hrs. and was feeling quite discouraged . I was actually leaving when I saw this little grove of trees I had hit quite a few times over the years . It had given me given a little bit of clad and a couple of newer wheats . Figured I'd give it another shot to see if I could even find any type of coin there . It wasn't long before I got a decent hit that sounded like it had a little depth to it .
I was pleasantly surprised when it turned out to be a 1940 Washington at about 8 deep . This got the blood pumping again and I stayed a bit longer to dig another nickel and a clad dime . After that the two old dogs headed for home . :groovy:

Thanks Guys !! |:confused:) So far out of the 5 silver coins I have found this year 2 have been silver Washingtons . A good ratio so far . It's been a better year for nice jewelry though . Clad has been way below par . There's a lot of year left though . I'm about due for a beach hunt or two . :yes:

A day saving Wash is pretty cool. Doesn't silver in the hole look just great.

WTG finding a hunt saving silver, it just goes to show you it's never hunted out.

Thanks Joe , I guess I'm getting greedy but I haven't found a Barber coin or older in a few years now and I'm really lusting for one of those but any silver in the hole is exciting for me .

Yes , and I was glad it was an older one with a little character to it .

I started hunting this place 20 years ago and I was told it wasn't worth hunting anymore then .
All the old timers have given up on it and the newby's get tired of it quickly . I just seem to find enough to keep me going there.
