Pictures of the first 2 hunts with my new Xterra 705 3 silver and few wheats I think I picked the right machine to get back into the hobby after a nearly 20 year break

So stoke about it I picked up a 3 KHZ factory coil on line cant wait if I am hitting silver with the factory 7.5 It will be interesting to see what the 3 can do. Also picked up a Minelab pinpointer
 
Isn't it amazing how nice silver looks even after being in the ground for a 100 years yet the new stuff falls apart after a few weeks sometimes. Nice finds
 
crash did you tumble your silver with clad pennies? looks pinkish to me...nice looking ladies you got there. congrats!

No I do not use a tumbler just a soft toothbrush and a little toothpaste. I went back and looked at the pictures and the coins I think it is just the lighting or my phone camera
 
Here is yesterdays hunt results. Not pictured is a couple 45-70 cartridges that were given to the homeowner and 3 pieces of copper tubing and 3 busted up hotwheels
