    Hello seated!!

    .....from my yard!!!.....still cant believe it!....found the barber and seated dimes last night about 10pm while the rest of the house was sleeping the barber dime was kind of a crappy signal down about 8 inches next to the sidewalk leaving the front of the house. The seated was only about 5-6 inches in the sidewalk strip close to the road, and was a great signal (thought it was gonna be clad). That makes a grand slam on dimes (not all in one hunt) from this yard. The last pic I put numbers where I've found old coins (wheats excluded) and I'm blessed that they all have been in pretty good shape!...thanks for looking all, HH, Griff

    the barber gave a crappy signal and was kind of dudding out a bit....maybe had some iron in the hole that I never retrieved. The seated though was a great signal, but I wasnt thinking something that old was gonna pop out. ....I don't think I've ever dug a coin that old that gave such a great signal, but this is the first season with the minelab, and I am loving it!

    Your gonna have fun going back to your old spots. I'm sure you were pretty thorough but that explorer just finds things that others don't.
    Ya never know until ya go.
