100 YEAR OLD COIN SPILL .....AND THERE'S MORE IN THE HOLE!!!

OK folks, this is a new one for me.......In my town there is a small/medium grassy knoll area near the town cemetery. I found a nice 1906 Barber dime there 2 nights ago and went back there again last night. I started detecting at 7pm and around 7:15pm I found an 1890 Indian.I swung my loop (XLT)just to the left of that hole and there was a large (2x2) area that was sounding off, a little broken up and I almost walked away from it but it pinpointed at 3.5 inches so I dug and out came an 1880 Indian and the rest is history.......FOR THE NEXT 30 MINUTES I PROCEEDED TO PULL OUT 13 INDIANS AND 4 DIMES!!!!....It was now about 7:50pm and very dark so I had to leave......On one of my last handfuls of dirt I pulled out a pretty large (2 inches) piece of green glass and it got me thinking all night that maybe I have found coins that someone buried in a jar and the jar broke......the hole is still sounding off loud and clear and it is raining hard here (Mass) so I'm not sure when I can go back...I am hoping this afternoon.....I will keep you posted....I hope you enjoy the pics!

HH all!

Wow, I can believe you left that in the hole for a couple of days. Thats all I would have been thinking about. Sweet find congrats.

Congrats on the best coin spill I have seen since coming on tnet.

Did you break 80 on the golf course? Putting that spill in golf terms, you broke 70 with that find.

we had some fun while we were waiting for the final checkin but we did not mean for it to be at your expense. We were just acting silly because we were so excited for you.

My plan E would be playing in a foursome with Natalie Gulbis, Sophie Sandolo, and Anna Rawson...meaning 18 holes of golf that is.

I hate to admit it but i have no idea who these ladies are. I could google them i guess, but it sort of like buying a boat or an airplane... if you have to ask how much it costs then you can't afford it... same with these gals.. if I have to ask who they are then i am too old to need know apparently. (sigh)

They are the pinup girls of the lpga. Two of them have calenders. One of them hasn't quite made the league yet but probably will.

That was an awesome bunch of coins there!!! I don't think I could have waited that long to go back and finish the hole... I'm glad you pulled more stuff out of it! Take care and HH, MIke.
