Old Site Produces BIG Silver and a thank you to NebTrac

Greetings all,

After over 5 years of researching, a lot of hiking, detecting the wrong areas and total frustraations, I finally located an old site that dates back to 1895. I got out there last Friday and got some decent detecting time in and found a bunch of modern clad and got this 1941 Walking Liberty at the site. The part I was hunting I think is the parking area and didnt find the site where the old buildings were (well not yet LOL). Hopefully I will get back out there this week to explore a little bit further.

I have to give a special thanks to NebTrac for this find. He did a post a while back about target seperation and good targets. I didnt really pay attention to this but I realized that I was doing it for a while now but the Walker was the proof. I heard the nice silver sound but it was very broken but did catch my attention. When I pinpointed it, I got the null and and was able to work around it. When I dug, I forund a top to an old iron can or whatever the thing was. I ran the coil over the hole and BINGO got that AWESOME silver sound we all look for.......Just had to share

HH all..............Rick
 
What a beautiful coin! Fantastic job. :please:

I appreciate the credit Rick. I'm glad the sound "caught your attention"! I'm just really glad you are able to swing, dig and bring us these mouth watering finds :drool: . Hopefully your research is JUST starting to pay off. I hope you find your spot.

NebTrac
 
Sweet big silver!!
 
Beautiful coin Rick ! :clapping:
 
Nice one! :thumbup:

HH all
 
Rick that is a beautiful coin, congratulations on the find. That coin is on my goal list for this year. Thanks for posting the picture. But now look what you have done you have gone and made NebTrac's head swell up like the rest of his body. Just having some fun, we are snowed in here in Texas today, 8 inches of snow and -10 windchill. NebTrac is real asset to this forum, looks like I went to the school of bad photo editing. HH - Randy
 
Congrats on your Walking Liberty half dollar. That's a monster find!
