Sunday I went to a city country club and ended up with 4 silver dimes and some wheats. 3 of the silver dimes came out of one hole, it was such a happy moment pulling multiple silver from one hole!

Then Saturday I hunted an old home and found my 1st V nickel and a buffalo nickel. Plus I found some neat relics, pocket watch case, crotal bell, and what I think is a smashed bullet.

Very well done sir. Congrats

You should have looked hard for a Jefferson, that would have given you your first nickel trifecta!

Yeah must have been next to some iron but I don't remember pulling any out. Came in right on as a nickel signal with the Etrac. Ty
