Hi all,
While Youtube was uploading, I did research on my mystery find. Anyway, after 3 hours of nothing but $.98 clad, when frustration was highest, luck came my way big! Video explains, but also I've uploaded photos to placate those who don't have time to watch....

Wow thats a great haul! Insane hole... I hope you find more great stuff there. Weird that new clad would be mixed in with those in the woods.
 

Wow!!! :o :o :o

Incredible finds, Jon!!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :icon_king: :icon_king:

If you're placating me, consider me placated! I both have and take the time to watch the vids, but for a fast scan of finds, pics can't be beat. I like to stare at the pics for a while, too. Especially on nice finds like those!

WTG! :wink:
 

Now that's a hunt :thumbsup:

If this is any indication of the finds you'll be recovering this year, you're going
to have to get a bigger container to carry all those big silvers ;D
 

"What a great hole"

Only slightly understated.

AWESOME DIGS!

Super congrats on the first silver half!

And another great looking V!

East India Company? Wow!
 

Yes Sir Those Are Some Quality Finds :occasion14:

East India....Have not seen that dug before...Congrats

And a Barber Half....You do not see many of those dug either

You had a heck of a day....

Jon,
Awesome buddy!!! That's one hellaofahole.
You must have went back to "Barber Woods"

It amazing how 3 hours of frustration can disappear in 15 minutes.

Great hunt and let's get back out there soon.

Big Congrats bud. :thumbsup:

5/5 are barbers (1 more dime and 1 have $1.00 in Barber..., still does not equal Barber $$ from last year which was $1.85, but I am out pacing last year).
