Unfortunately only one was old! Took a trip to hit one of my favorite old parks, and re-worked an area where I've had previous success. First good signal was what sounded like a quarter, not deep. In the hole were 2 quarters, 2 dimes and a nickel.
Not long after, I got a signal that was sounding like an Indian, but pinpointing a little wide. After digging down about 7 inches, I came up with a signal in my hand, but the pinpointer said there was something else in the hole. I dropped the first object in my bucket, scooped out another signal and still the pinpointer sang more. The first 2 pics are the coins after I located them all. There was one single Indian (1902) and then 2 groups of 2 coins stuck together, which turned out to be a 1903 Indian and an 1896 V-Nickel and 1883 and 1890 Indians. You'll see the green on the coins where they were stuck.
I went on to find two more Indians (1904 & 1907), another V-Nickel (1889) a 1943-P War Nickel and 7 wheats, one being a 1909.
As I don't have time to get the coins cleaned tonight and won't all week, I attached a pic of them just cleaned to the point where I could ID them. I'll try to get a pic up of them once they're all cleaned.
Hope you all had some success this weekend!
Enjoy the pics and HH.
