Big Silver...Little Pitchers

Hello All,

Finally got permission to hunt a 50's era home near where I live. I was dodging the rain as Issac passed the Tampa Bay area. The ground wet and there was a layer of dark dirt that was nearly impossible to get off of the hand trowel that I use on residential yards with sandy soil underneath. I think most of the silver has slipped into the deep. The signals were bouncy and erratic giving numbers unusual for known items such as pennies. Vast differences between PP mode and search mode. I noise cancelled more then once. I spent about 2hrs with more yard to do. However, I did manage one '51 Rosie and the sweet '35 Walker. The Walker jumped to 12-46 once then seemed to settle on 12-43, 12-44. Thinking it was a dime or a stinkin Lincoln I dug and found her at about 7-8 inches. The 2 pitchers are unusual, I will ask have to ask the son of the owner about them, he grew up in that house.
Thanks for looking and HH,
Bunker
 
Thanks Terry,
Initially I thought the pitchers were the ends of a fuse with special handles to pull it out of the circuit. Ha Ha! After finding the second one I took a closer look and saw the pouring peak.

Must have wet soil there Bunker. The only time I see silver tarnished like that here in Nebraska is a certain park I hunt, where the IH's are a good 10"+ deep and I've yet to find anything older than a Merc, silverwise there. Though it isn't wet this year. Send some rain our way!

Congratulations on the finds and thanks for the pictures. Even gray, that Walker is a beautiful coin!!!!!!!! Those little pitchers are cool too.
