Hey folks,

Spent a couple hours hitting curb strips today. Lots of targets but the only old coin was a 1950-S wheatie. The Canadian dime had me going, too bad it's a '75. Can't win them all!

Well what fun would it be if you got silver every time,wait that would be awesome.nice finds
 
Think of it this way.

You found a key to some poor saps Ford Fairmont.
Bet he had a looooooong walk home that day.

You did much better!
 
Still a nice little haul you made. Good hunt.
 
This coins have "curb" appeal ! Oh man I kill me

Kurios 1, Any more iron, you yourself might begin to rust, and YOU will need a "Vinegar" soak.
 
Congrats on pulling all those coins. Look like you had a good day coin shooting. :occasion14:

You just never know what's in a curb strip unless you swing your coil over it. My only Franklin Half, a Walker, an SLQ, and my only 1700's silver (Spanish Real) came from curb strips. What coil were you using? I hit a curb strip on a corner lot with the fisher stock DD and pulled 50 coins, thought I cleaned it out. I went back a few months later playing around with the 5"DD and pulled 50 more coins. I find it amazing how many good targets can be masked by trash and have been using smaller coils since last season for better target separation.
 
Yeah I went out last evening and dug a 79 Canadian that gave me a rush.
Nice finds for you though.

Just using the stock coil actually. I do have a smaller coil, I should try it sometime!

Hey tomorrow take it slow and go over the curb strips you already hit. I also ask that you hunt them in a different direction. If you hunted them long ways, then this time hunt them road to sidewalk. I am really curious to see what you will find. It took me 2.5 years to install my small coil.
