Update! Seated on 4/1! Awesome Day! Semi-Key 1893-o Barber + 5 other keepers!

Hi all!
I have video footage, but I am holding on to it now cuz tomorrow I am going back to pull a Seated. Today I hit a very hard hit spot over many years. I tried a new technique. IT payed off!!!! I only had 90 minutes to hunt. The best day I ever had at this place was 4 coins over a 6 hour hunt (and that's when I first hit the spot 2 years ago). Many multi-hour hunts have yielded nothing.

Today in my 90 minutes I blew that away with 6 keepers! 2 Indian heads (1879, 1897), 2 Wheat (1910, 1912), 1 V nickel (1904) and a 1893-0 barber dime ($30+ for G-4 condition). Wish me luck tomorrow for seated! With work, I only will have 2 or at best 3 hours to hunt.

I'll Post Picks plus long video of 3/28 and 4/1 hunt plus reveal my trick!!! It may be a little while cuz I have lots of video to edit, but I pulled an 1883 Seated Dime today :unhappysmiley: First seated in almost 2 years for me. I also came away with 2 Indians 1882, 1893, and a silver ring. Also found a mexican voter ID. It's funny that people here whine to h... about the idea of photo Id's when the mexican voter ID is not just photo but THUMB print also...

Whatever you did differently, it worked awesome Jon! Can't wait to see what you get next!
 

Awesome stack of keepers! Good luck with that seated! So what is your new technique? I think I need a new technique as I've been skunked the last couple times out.

It's proprietary information until I get my seated.
 

Go get it now! Hurry up! What are you waiting for?! :)
 

Exellent hunt.
 

Awesome finds! Please share that new technique with a fellow E-Trac'er when you confirm it. Good luck!
 

You have that machine homing in on the goodies, nice work.
 

Great finds Nice barber, you having a great spring I hope you find that that seated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

What a great year/mintmark on that dime and I really like those 1870s Indians. You did have a great day!
 

Great finds Jon congrats :skullflag:
 

Got SEATED on 4/1 and it's no joke.
 

Jon,
I posted 1 pic of it on the silver tally, you can see it there. As I want to start a new thread, which will include my seated finding secrets and I don't want photos to detract from that posting I will withhold photos here. I am beginning to work on vid now, and will post as soon as vid is done and uploaded, which may take some time...
-Jon
 

Saw the pic!!!! Congrats!!!!!!! will your secret tell me when I'll get my next one ???????
