3 Very Nice Coins! I went back to the old house I was at 2 weeks ago where the lady said I could come back and finish her yard but she wasn't home and I didn't feel comfortable detecting when no one is home so I went in search of another house. Luck would have it the first house I stopped at I got a yes. I only found 3 coins but these 3 are better than a pocket full of clad. I wanted to get them posted right away so as you can see I haven't even finished getting the dirt off them yet.

The dates are 1945D, 1920, and 1920

I am glad that lady wasn't home.

The mercury dime almost looks like it's got a 1929 date, with the 9 worn down to lok like a small 0...maybe.

Those are great looking coins to have been dug, congratulations on finding them. That woman deserves a present for letting you tear up her yard. WTG :icon_sunny:

That sure makes for a great day..
Look at this way ..
You have 2 places to keep hitting.

I was just doing a house from 1912. I wish the guy wasn't home. He followed me everywhere and wanted to see ever coin dug.
I didn't stay to long..
