I have been metal detecting for a couple of months. Found lots of cents and clad but this is my 1st silver.

Very nice! Was this an isolated find, or were other coins in close proximity?

Excellent! You should punch that and carry it as a totem whenever you go out detecting. Maybe your first silver can help to pull more silver out of the ground. =)

It was all by itself. I had done some research on some old campsites from the late 1940s at one of local state-run reservoirs. After getting permission from the area manager found this coin. Lots of other junk in the same hole including a tent stake. My minelab exterra elite was able to sort it out and show me an 83 reading mixed in.
