"AWESOME" grove gives up some more goodies!
Went out prospecting by the "Awesome" grove, and a short distance away from where the goodies were coming from, I stumbled upon another "Awesome" spot. Within half an hour, I scored 3 wheaties; 1916-s, 1919, & 1919-s. Merc dime; 1918-s, and a Barber dime; 1916. All within a 10'x10' area. Have to go back and grid it out and work it hard. The Barber dime was over 12" deep and came in at 01-41 on the E-Trac, barely made a faint signal. Merc was at about 7" or 8". Wheaties were deep too. Tuned up the machine by cranking up the gain to 27 and sensitivity to 24. I can't believe how faint some of the signals of these coins were.
All in all a good day in my books! Can't wait to go back there and hit it hard and slow. thumbsup
Enjoy and HH!
Sorry the pics are yellowish, but it is dark and I am using artificial light. Coins are uncleaned as you can see. The silver has some black on it, and the wheaties should clean up nice.
