HEY GUYS ANDS GALS

Out today for a run with Cousin ED....had a lead on a new location.

Started out slow as we were trying to find the hot spot on the new site.....2 hrs in and only the fancy brooch ...broke the clasp on the back.
ED didn,t have anything either , then I hit the 1899 large cent ....ED didn,t seem to be as happy as I was..lol...he been having a slow week.
Then the belt buckle popped out ...nothing special...cheeply made.

ED at this time had enough of me finding stuff and him zilch. S o he says.... "Heading back towards the truck to find another spot".

I reluctantly agreed......ED made 2 more steps and bang had a 72 hit on the F75.....pops out a silver quarter and his mood chances instantly..lol. So I went over to see....I said... "did you re check your hole"....

Waves the detector over it bang another 72....pops out another silver quarter..rechecks....a fishscale 5 cent silver ....rechecks....large one cent copper. Needless to say ...ED is grinning from ear to ear....hasn,t had a silver for 6 weeks.

So with the mood changed dramatically...he wants to stay and we continue swinging. About 5 minutes later I hit a 71-72 on my F75.....dug my plug ....nothing in the plug and nothing on the pinpointer in the hole..rechecked with the detector and the signal is still there but it is under a root...I push the shovel in and get a chunk of dirt ...turn it over and see 2 silver DIMES... SWEEEEEET !!!

Get up RE-CHECK...another signal is in the dirt I dug out......pinpointer finds a QUARTER... and there lays 3 more silvers...2 quarters and fishscale 5 cent.... run the pointer threw the dirt and see 2 more silvers......another fishscale 5 cent and dime. No coppers...cool.

So much fun finding spills....20 minutes later hit a triple US wheatie hole..... walked 5 feet and hit a double...silver dime and large cent.
ED then hits a 4 coin spill...all small coppers dating in 1940s.

Only 1 single coin hit outta 22 coins.


Weirdest I have seen yet....why was everything in spills...very odd indeed ?????

Great story and fantastic silvers. That's a good time right there. :)

Yup... was a fun day !! Really was funny watching ED getting grumpy and then end up grinning ear to ear.

Had my camera with me but forgot to take pics of it....too excited I guess.

Now that is fantastic! Silver coin spills all over the place! I swear there is some kind of magic when you start heading back to the truck, sooo many really awesome finds are made then!
A BIG congrats to you and Ed for probably setting a record of some kind on coin spill finds in a day, week, or month!!!!
Definitely get yourselves back there, there must have been something go'n on for all the coin spills to happen!

ty Msbeepbeep...

Weirdest day yet as far irregularities go..... why would everything be in spills.....only 1 single coin find...definitely outta the ordinary.

And to find them all after calling it quits and heading back...them coins coulda sat there for another 100 years if ED hadn,t made them last few swings.

Woulda went home and prolly never returned. Right where ED hit his 4 coin spill I had walked right past 2 hrs earlier within inches !!! I must have just swung the coil in a different direction while looking off at something else. Kinda really made me shake my head at how easily things are missed.

Will make a return run there next week to see what else we missed.

TY Patriot...

Was one of them hunts where I wasn,t quite sure what I was looking for.......one of them surprise deal.

Was the potential for something really old as there is old history everywhere here but think the old stuff would be scarce there. But kinda figured would be mostly early 1900s.

However the site is much bigger than just where we were...will definitely go back for another look.

I will let her know! She will laugh in my face. :-) but that's ok. She doesn't take this treasure hunting quite as seriously as you and I. Bet she would if I found something worth $8000 or so. Ahhhhhhhh wouldn't that be nice. Maybe this weekend
