Finally I Got Some Silver

On my two previous hunts I loaded up on wheat pennies but I couldn't get any silver under my search coil. Today I decided to go back over those same sites again using a different detector. The first silver quarter that I found was just flat out mess by me on a previous hunt because there wasn't anything there masking it. On the second silver quarter I was getting a funky signal and target ID. The silver quarter was partially being masked by a wheat penny and a nickel. I can see how I missed that one.

Today was another gorgeous day!

Cool bottle opener! Probably worth more than the silver!

Nice recovery on the masked quarter. It always amazes me how many clean obvious signals I have missed, then hit on the second (or third or more) visit. Awesome bottle opener too. Do you think that was mounted to a dispenser or did they sale them separated for home use?

Thanks! You might be right about that.

Two '64s? I'd take that any day! Good choice on the return. HH
Thanks! Silver quarters don't pop up as much as Rosie and Merc dimes do.

Thanks! I'm always amazed that I miss an easy target on the first go around.

Congrats on saving the twins!
Thanks! Finding silver quarters sure is fun.

Two bits twice!

Well done Beephead!
Thanks! Yep, double the joy.

Nice recoveries! Funny thing about Tesoro machines....they always seem to be a silver magnet. Last time I hunted with someone with a Tesoro, they were able to match me silver for silver and also found 2 Washingtons that day. Congrats.
