19 Silver, 107 Wheats!! Barbers, Injuns, Gold!

[Captn SE]

Hello Everyone.

I had another fun and productive week at a spot I've been detecting now for the past few weeks. This week, I found my 80th silver coin from this site, including my 7th and 8th barber dimes(1914D, 1910), and my 4th and 5th Indian Head pennies (1906, 1895). I can't believe how many more Mercury dimes I'm finding at this spot than Rosies. The ratio is over 2 to 1 (46 Mercs - 20 Rosies). The wheaties are abundant. Many were in the 20's and 30's, highlighted by a 1910 S semi-key. A few of the silvers and wheats were found shallow, but most are in the 7-9 plus inch range. One surprise of the week happened when I was detecting near a gopher mound. I saw something shiny laying right in the middle of the dirt mound, and when I got a little closer, I knew it was gold. It turned out to be a 10 kt gold cross; One of the larger crucifixes I've ever found. This spot has been one of the most productive I have ever detected in such a short amount of time. What a blast!!

Thanks for looking!
Keep The Passion High!

Dan you are a silver digging monster Congrats on the Silverage and Gold Crucifix ( Beautiful find there ) I have found coins that gophers have pushed out myself. Have you ever noticed how you'll find ant nest frequently near old deep coins.

I am curious is this a quiet spot or is everyone and their dogs hunting It. It sounds like you got it all to your self. If so I would keep quiet about it's location. Not too sound selfish, but I have learned the hard way sharing hot spots with others M.D.

Great finds as always, Dan. Looks like you've kicked it up a notch or two and are listening for more than just the high, flutey silver/copper coins?

Just stunning, Dan. Simply stunning! What a year you have been having. And I can tell that you're having a blast. This will be one to remember, no doubt. Keep it up buddy! I look forward to all your posts, and I never cease to be amazed at the finds you pull out of those pounded parks. The best thing is that you keep getting better and better. The more time you put in, the more you get back in finds!! And your years of paying dues are paying you back over and over.

Keep the fever high!! Viva la hunt!

Congrats on the gold, eyeball find, dug, it doesn't matter, its still gold!! I'd say you've got some great Parks there which will give you a ton of wheaties and enough silver to keep you coming back. Great finds!!
