I had a good hunt today. I went back to the spot where I had found five silver coins, and it did not disappoint. I focused a little more on the mid tones, and it paid off. A 1912 V — nickel, I 1916 Dash D buffalo nickel, and a 41 Jefferson too.

Silver includes a war nickel and a 1943 Merc.

A bunch of tokens again, and interesting Medal that’s says ‘street fair’.

I really enjoy enjoyed having my at pro with the 5x8 coil, and the at max with the standard coil. It made hunting More enjoyable to go over trashy spots again, and just to have the opinion of both units.

Something funny is fact that I scored my 3rd war nickel in a row without getting a 90% coin. I think I’m digging more tones that are war nickel-like I suppose...

Anyways, thanks for reading. I had written a much longer report but the computer deleted it all so you get the short version :)

Well done sir. Digging the iffy signals has been paying off for me lately. Glad to see that it’s working for you too.

Nice nickel trifecta! Congrats.

The tokens are strange, because they are so many here. I’m basically on a staircases easement with alley cutting through perpendicular, and stairs running down the whole easement. I have found tokens in all 4 quadrants. So... maybe one big spill, and several single lost tokens. I’m not certain.

Then medal has the word “ Schuaan “ on the reverse ( its very faint and slightly corroded) very hard to get all the letters. I’m not sure I have the word read exact either. Any further help identifying wouldn’t be great.

Also, last time I found a couple ‘bar’ ‘pub’ tokens. This time, it was a two difference that pool halls. That token website is cool, but I’m not sure the rarity of any of them. Also, the tokens are coming out of the ground looking quite crisp.

Thanks again for the encouraging words folks.
