Got alot of rain yesterday so I hit an old park that I hunt a few times a year being as the soil is very sandy and dries quickly. So I wanted to get there when it was still damp . Ended up finding my first Nickel Quadfecta. .. a Jefferson, a silver Jefferson, a Buffalo and 2 V Nickels . Then to make the day even better I pulled a couple of beautiful mercs. A few wheats rounded out the day and about 6.00 in clad . What a great day

I am SOOO confused. A Jefferson and a silver jefferson and two buffalo??? How come I see a Jefferson, a silver Jefferson ONE buffalo and TWO V nickels??

Maybe my computer is playing tricks on me?? BAD computer. Or maybe I can't read since after I posted things changed?

Looks like a great hunt. A lot of older coins

Thank you for sharing the information. I am planning to upgrade during the next winter. Right now I'm thinking either e trac, deus or tesero.
