Ok, not really, but let me explain... Ever since I have gotten this detector, when I have hunted for an hour or more in the city, I have never gone home without finding silver. But today, after a 3-hour hunt, I found no silver.
I went to a location I thought for sure would hold some silver. The old National Guard Armory downtown Jacksonville Fl. Built 1915-1916. It was the City’s principal public facility for entertainment/social events, such as an address by first lady Eleanor Roosevelt, dances, boxing matches, and concerts by well-known singers. It is now city property, used as the parks and recreation building.
I was positive that it was a "sure thing". But after three hours hitting that front yard as hard as I could, I had to walk away broken hearted.
All was not a total loss. I did find a 1918 wheat penny, a token, and a bunch of clad.
Also, my first dig on the lot I pulled up an old oil lamp part. The stem has "STAR" on it with some other letters. That lead me to think that some old stuff was sure to be found. And it was, but not what I had hoped...
She will just have ot make up for it with two silvers next time...
