Hit one of our old parks and ventured off to an area that we don't seem to get to all that often. Mostly because the roads get a fair amount of auto traffic, but being early decided to work the curb area in for a few yards. Actually dug a few more targets then has been the norm of late and 2 of them turned out to be silver dimes. 1, a 58d Rosie and the other a 34 Merc.
The Rosie was a bouncy signal, was getting 77/78-81/82 showing 6" deep on the depth meter. Dug down about 5" and found nothing in the clod. Used the pin pointer down in the hole and ended up recovering 3 wheat cents from the loose dirt in the hole. Checked the hole one last time and got another hit near the bottom of the hole off to the side a bit. That turned out to be the Rosie. Actually dug 2 other wheats. 1 for the picture shot was mixed in with the Memorial's. The 2 oldest wheats were 1918 and 1929. The Mercury was just a classic 83-84 from 4" deep. Had on the 11" coil and running pro zero and iron on and off. We are working our way into the 70's tomorrow. HH jim tn

Sure is nice to have some "silver ware" on that plate to help partake of all that Wheat!!
I'm glad that you got your silver fix. 
You sure find the early wheats.
