Slump Breaker

I’ve been in a slump.  About 10-15 hours without finding a silver.  Frustrating.  But got one today, as well as a silver ring.  This is one of the first sites I ever detected, but I have only found 4 silvers there.  Its far from me, and I only hit it when I run errands in that direction.

Its a difficult site to detect.  Huge, and highly mineralized.  This rosie was only 4.5 inches deep, and was an iffy signal.  The mineralization whacks out the target ID, so you waste so much time digging clad.

But, I think there are probably 20+ silvers here if I had the patience, and lived closer.

Half Cent

Been awhile since I’ve been out, but went to a trusty site today, but the fish weren’t biting. Went to another site on the way home, which I had never really researched much, and the last time I was there was in 2008.

Not much there either, but found a small section where I was getting deep clad, which is always a good sign, then a nice possible silver signal that turned out the be a half cent.   Half cents are hard to find; the last one I found was in 2013.
