I went back to the spot I got the 73 silver coin spill before and found another spill about ten feet away in the grass that was to long to hunt before. I was on lunch break today and got 15 coins out of the hole and went back after work and just now and got 5 more. I'm sure the hole is cleaned out but I'm going to continuously check around there every now and then. The first coin out was a barber quarter and I was psyched over that. Rechecked the hole and sure enough it was like last time were there was constant more hits. In the end I got 13 silver quarters and 7 silver dimes. They are mostly Canadian but I have 3 barbers and 1 standing Liberty. I'll get back later and post the dates. Thanks for looking! [emoji2]

Do it !
Not sure what your forecast is for tomorrow but it doesn't look great for you in the next few days, keep in mind it isn't going anywhere, it'll be there waiting for you!

I'm hoping a quick try tomorrow over lunch but if I don't get chance I satisfied my "find" craving for now. Just for right now though! Haha
 
You are so close to 100 silvers in the cache, I hope you can squeeze a couple more out to make the century!

That makes 94 silver coins total from the property. 93 good old ones and before that I got a lonely 1950's dime in the new driveway away from the spills.
 
Totally AWESOME!!! Congrats!!!
That must be some kind of record!
 
Amazing finds! Congrats!
 
Very cool! Don't see spills this nice too often!! :treasurechest::thumbsup:
 
Thats an whole bunch of silver goodness
 
The barber coins are...
1893 dime no mark
1900 quarter O mark
1902 quarter S mark

I will have to go through the other spill sometime and see if there are different mint letters on any the US coins.
 
Must be nice finding more silvers in 1 whole than I find in a year. Congrats! Good luck on the next return trip
 
Here's the dates...

Canadian quarters
1901,1911,1914,1918,1919,1919,1926,
1928,1929,1929

Canadian dimes
1903,1916,1916,1918,1919,1929

US standing quarter
1925

US barber quarters
1900,1902

US barber dime
1893

I'll have to look again at the Canadian quarter dates tomorrow. I put a 1926 quarter but none were made that year. I guess I was rushing the list. Probably another 1928 one! [emoji2]
 
Unfreaking believable! Amazing! Congrats to you!!
 
seriously..thank is just awesome. great hunting...
 
Most of the area was levelled and filled for a new house. Just a fairly small portion of original yard left that just happens to be where I got the finds. I remember before I ever detected a foundation and what the whole original spot looked like as a kid. There was a store out of a old timers house back in the day. It would have been a huge amazing spot if not mostly ruined now. But I will be back to it! Haha

Maybe it's really a cache that got bulldozed/disturbed during the land moving part of building!? Regardless, spilled or cached, it's an incredible find and recovery! Congratulations.
 
That is pure CRAZYNESS!!!! The thought of what might be covered up by the dozing is SICK!!!! Big CONGRATZ...
 
You had me at "Big Silver Spill".....then I read the word "Another" Nice!!!
 
Congrats on another killer score from that spot. WOW and WOW. I am a silver coin guy, so this is as good as it gets in my opinion. Nice...

Thanks. It's pouring rain now but snow and ice later so I may have to get wet and go back today for a bit! [emoji2]
 
Yep, you're hitting small caches not spills. Any remnants of a container at all in the holes? These are incredible recoveries. Dig every target you can, especially the big ones! Thanks for sharing!
