I went back to my hunting grounds today and spent 5 hours there. I took a sandwich along so I did stop to eat...I was running my Equinox 900 just like yesterday. Park 1 and varying sensitivity from 23-28 pending on the emi. I wasn't ten minutes into the hunt when I got a high tone that locked on at 92-93! I wondered if it was a part of an old beer can but when I popped out the plug I was rewarded with a worn 1856 O half dollar! That made my day right there!! I ended up with a five silver day. The odd one in the dimes is a 1903 Canadian 10 cent. I haven't looked at the pennies or nickles yet. My Whites TRX probe crapped out towards the end of the day. I took it apart and the frame that holds the rubber push button was cracked making the button stick in the on position. So I need a new housing for that! Anyone know any Whites dealers or did Garret take all the inventory? All in all I had a great day! I may go back tomorrow and make another sweep of the area! Thanks for looking and HH! Ted

Holy Smokes Ted!!! You went from silver drought to silver raining down 😂
Congratulations on the seated half!!
If you need help digging in that hard dirt, I’m only a phone call away 🤭🤣
Jk
Get back there Ted and blast that place!!
 
Thanks everyone! I will go back in a few days. I have to fix my pinpointer and have personal business to attend to today. I am going to shoot for Monday. I haven't found this much silver in one place in over 40 years! I have to back over my research notes and see what else I have missed! (y)

You're on fire Ted, a huge attaboy and congrats on another great hunt. A little jelly on the seated half. What a find. I'm still lookin for my first Barber half. That is definitely some old ground you've found. Keep pounding it and good luck. Mark

James Buchanan was president when that coin was minted, that's a trophy find in anybody's world!
I'd be happy with a seated dime.

I did find a well worn seated dime.
Then a dirty deputy snuck in. In the middle of the night and cleaned up.
My 1860 home I lost when I became disabled.
Still in forclosure. I just got permission to go detecting from the bank. Having worked miss most my life. Got their around 3 am. Only to see a sheriff pulling out. Cked the property. Not a single target. I left hundreds in the ground. I had focused on the Cooper's. Felt it was like money left Inna piggy bank. Nope. Made the mistake of telling a neighbor when he asked. Cops buddy.
