I was beginning to think I was sliding into a silver slump till yesterday. The last 4 outings produced few coins with only 2 old wheats and 2 Ihps notable. Been over a month since I last dug silver.
The few tearouts I have did never produced anything but junk. Just a few streets over they are tearing out sidewalk corners at the intersections and ramping them down for handicap access. Off and on heavy rain kept them filled all weekend so finally by noon or so Sunday they were drained off. Had a bluetooth pairing problem and had to hunt with speaker. Traffic made it a little challenging but doable. First section, first signal I get a 12-13, look down to see just a small clump of sod and dirt and in it out comes a Buff. Great way to start. Most sections produced a little clad in one form or another and I stopped back at the first hole on my way back to the truck. It was getting hot and with no shade to be had after two hours I was starting to feel it. Scanning the sidewall I get a weak hightone. I had to move some of the dirt piled up on top right at the cut and when I did I get a nice 30s coin tone. About 5 in. down I see silver. A 61 GW. A 66 rosie was in there with it. Great way to end a short hunt with # 37 fty.
The other pics are from previous hunts including the last one I dug some shiny on. Thanks for looking in. Mark
