Well, went out with D-Dub and TF the other day as you guys already saw their finds. I started digging up Indian head after Indian head, including some IH pocket spills, some Barber dimes, and so on.

Then I came across a real crappy signal, but because of all the old stuff coming out of the ground there, I decided to dig it. And am very glad that I did. The targets here vary from inch deep IH's to 10" Seated quarters.

I really don't know what to say, because I'm still kind of shocked.
Coins this hunt included:
1881,1888,1890,1891,1894,1900, 2x 1902, 2x 1903, and 1907 IH's
1884, 1887, and 1900 V-Nicks
1902 & 1903-o Barber dimes
1877-s Seated Quarter
1884-s Morgan dollar
and an 1888 Token/pendant(last pic)?

Great hunt Jon! :thumbsup:

Isn't it amazing how heavy those big ones feel when you first lift them from the hole.

Oh MAN!!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I think I'm giving those finds five kings! :icon_king: :icon_king: :icon_king: :icon_king: :icon_king:

Hey Jon, with all the Phantasmic silvers you guys are digging, you sould get a contact lens squirt bottle & fill it with water. The jet spray will get most of the mud off on the spot with no dabbing at all.

Outtasight hunt!!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :notworthy:

Truly oustanding coin and way to get it on video coming out the ground. WTG on that seated quarter also! Looks like you skipped getting the seated dimes this year and are going right after the seated quarters!

The pics look amazing! That freakin' huge ass morgan dollar and thick seated quarter are just begging to held. You might not want to put them in holders too soon so you can rub your meat mits all over them and get all giggly.

FREAKIN' A for awexome man!
