Hi my name is Don and I am 65 years old. My son introduced me to treasure hunting a little over a year ago. We went to a local Whites dealer near us and I bought a XLT-E series, and my son has one also. He called me one day and ask if I wanted to go try the old fairgrounds in the small town where I was raised when I was a kid. So they next day we went there. After we were there about an hour, we noticed it had been hunted pretty good, but we decided to stay a little longer. I got a nice tone and looked at my screen and it was reading a solid 91VDI in all directions! I pinpointed the target and it read 8.5 inches! I called my son over to check out this target. I was digging and got to about 7 inches and stopped to check the hole with my Whites Bullseye pinpointer, and it beeped when I stuck it in the bottom of the hole. I decided to dig with my fingers just in case it was an old silver coin. After digging with my fingers I felt something and looked in the hole and saw the gleam of a big silver disc! My son had his camera as he usually does and went to the car to get it. After he took the picture I reached down and pulled it out. It turned out to be a 1897 "S" Barber Half! Wow, my first silver half! We took some more pictures and decided to head home. It turned out to be a Key Date Barber and graded between Fine and Very Fine with a value $250 to $375 dollars. I love my Whites XLT and it is so easy to use. This is a great hobby and wish I would have started it a long time ago. It sure is fun getting out with my son and going on a "Treasure hunt", you never know what you'll find!
