    Park Hunt - 8/27/11 - Indians and Barbers

    Went back to my favorite new place to hunt. Etrac 007 stopped by after water hunting. As we were talking he noticed the coil on my etrac was on backwards.

    I had it dissasembled prior to my last hunt and put it back together last weekend before heading out to the park. I had to think twice if I wanted to switch it around since I found 6 silvers with it on backwards last Sunday and already had 2 Indians and a Barber dime today.

    Turned it around and within 1/2 an hour had the quarter below. Thanks Mike!

    Totals for the day - 2 IHs - 1902 and 1905, 1911 Barber Dime, 1899O Barber Quarter and racked up 20 wheaties.

    Nice finds there Patrick. 1800's quarters are awesome as well as O mint marks. I think you should leave the coil backwards. It could be your signature style.

    Great stuff P! I've put my coil on backwards once too and found some good stuff so I left it for a couple more hunts. Good luck to you again today if you are going out!
