1 day, 40 coins over 100 years old!!!!!

So I went out with 3cylbill again today for a long proper hunt. We were out swinging for almost a full 8 hrs. If you saw my thread last week, I was just coming off a career best hunt. Somehow I just managed to top that. THIS WAS A DREAM HUNT! I started off the day by turning on my machine and kicking some dead weeds aside, and literally my first swing I hit a half dime. From then on I wandered through the area pulling coin, after coin, after coin. A silver here, a few indians there, with the occasional nickel stumbling through. I entirely lost count during the hunt of how much silver I found, let alone the indians. Truly my best hunt of all time, I am still in awe of how I managed so many small silvers. I was banging out half dimes at 8 inches, it was just crazy. So this hunt yielded TWO MORE Bucket listers, a trime and a seated quarter. The totals for the day were 24 indians, 12 silvers, 3 shield nicks, 1 v nick, two junk rings(even though one is marked 24k haha), and a random token. So excited, straight drunk on silver.

Got ya. It would be fun to start a "treasurenet world records" category. Like most rings found in a hunt, most silvers found in hunt, most indians found in a hunt and so on. It could actually develop into something pretty detailed. I'm curious who is in the running for most indians with me. Someone has to have found more in one day in the early days of detecting.

I found 11 indians in one day and thought that would be hard to beat. Im up to around 200 from that site total though

I found 11 last friday and thought the same, then this happened. 200 is crazy! that dwarfs my total indian collection. Before this site it was always a few here and a few there, with plenty of hunts inbetween finding em.

Were you hunting the back door of a mint or a bank perhaps?
Maybe someday that will happen to me
