I was picking walnuts in a park in upstate New York. I had to meet a friend at 6 PM and it was only 5 PM and I was done picking walnuts. I had time to kill, about 30 minutes to be exact. Here I am in this 700 acre park, 80 percent which is heavily wooded and full of hills and valleys. So I am driving around and randomly pull over and decide to detect in a remote area. I walk into the woods about 40 feet, turn on my detector, walk about 5 feet. I got a good signal, dug it. There it was, a 1936 half dollar. Out of the 700 acres I happened upon this particular spot and got a walking liberty on my very first dig. Amazing luck indeed.
Amazing Luck

That's the way it goes sometimes. I remember one time with canadianguy, break of dawn we walked on to the beach and I wanted compare signals to see who's machine was deeper, i searched and found a nice deep one, his machine hit it as well, he said "ok, you dig it", it was my first gold ring of the day...
