5 Silvers including 3-coin pocket spill of Barber Half, SLQ and Barber dime!!
Oh my! How unexpected!!
Got out today to a local recreation area that's
yielded a couple of mercs in the past. Within 5 minutes a 1945 Merc comes up!
Not too shabby.
About 20 minutes later I get a shallow dime signal, but
instead of a clad Roosie, a 1946 shows up! I think this area tends to be more of
a rain drainage area, so that's why it's darker. WOO HOO, silver #2 for the day!
I was hoping to find a silver quarter as I didn't have any (yet) for the
year.
After an hour of pretty much nothing I get a clear, but deeper high
pitch signal. I figure I'd dig it even though I was digging pieces of soda cans
all day. In the bottom of the hole I suddenly see bright metal... but instead of
thinking coins, I was thinking it was that round part that gets punched out when
you open a soda. I picked it up and noticed it was pretty big. What the heck?
Wait a second, there's two things?? Turns out to be a 1925 Standing Liberty
Quarter sitting on top of a 1902 Barber Half! I stuck the ol' Pistol Probe in
the hole and got another signal. After a shovelfull comes out, the 1913 Barber
dime comes to light! Then I got a nickel signal in the pile, a Buffalo Nickel.
Also had two wheat cents in the hole - one is 1913, the other is 1913 or 1918.
What a pocket spill. I couldn't concentrate after that and decided to call it a
day.
Go figure... no barber half in my 20 years of off-and-on detecting,
and then two within a few weeks. Plus it was nice to finally find a Barber dime,
as well as my first silver quarter for the year - certainly beats a silver
Washington Too!
Not too thrilled with the focus on the iphone, but it's better than nothing.
