CHECK THAT HOLE!

[Burdie]

Well it is February and 63 degrees in Kansas. Can you believe this? I went to an old abandon house today. In less than an hour I found my first pocket spill of 2012. Wow what a nice coin spill. I then stopped hunting so a friend that is just starting detecting can hunt the place also. I don?t think it has ever been hunted. I want him to experience it. My pictures are terrible. I have macro but I can?t get it to work.
Well here is what happened. I got a weird signal that changed over each pass including the tone. Yet the tone was so close to being good so I dug. The first coin was a standing liberty quarter 8 inches down. No date but three stars under eagle. I believe that is a 1917 date. Needless to say I was happy and covered my hole. I then checked the area again. This time I got a better nickel signal this time. I dug the hole back out. Yea I know I should of checked first before covering. In the dirt is a no date Buffalo. I then checked the spot again another signal and I found a Mercury dime 1945. Didn?t find anything with the pinpointer, so I covered up the hole. Why I swung the detector again I don?t know but I got a weak signal deep. So I dug the stupid hole out again! About an inch deeper out comes a penny. OH not just a penny an Indian 1897.
Hope you enjoy.


I know it doesn't look like it but it has 3 stars.

How many times have I told you to recheck those holes? LOL!! Glad you had some nice weather to venture out in. Great pocket spill coins, even if you had to do extra work for em.

I learned the same lesson the other day.... My wife found a silver rosie and our favorite hunting spot... 2 days later she went over the same hole and got a hit... Got a mercury... another silver rosie, a war nickle, and a 1940 nickle all in the same hole she dug 2 days prior. Lesson learned.
Great finds, keep up the good work.
