I got out for awhile this morning i wanted to try a new program in my DFX the weather is great finally, i hit my old back yard again and sure enough there is still more in there that DFX goes just a few inches more i found 5 wheat's 1916 1917S 1922 S 1926 and 1927D plus a nice Merc `1943 and best of all a 8 inch deep 1853 Seated Quarter :hello2: i edit out any thing below a +10 in Block edit plus +95 block i used Mixed mode with a 80 Sens , not bad for 45 minutes doing a slow sweep .I guess no place is ever hunted out . Good Hunting Jim

Good stuff, what program are you running and what kind of depth are you getting?
 
Look like you did alright. Keep hitting your yard look like there could still be more great finds there....Matt
 
Good Job
Trust me no place is ever hunted out. Some of the places I'm digging have been pounded to death for years and I still manage to pull relics out of them.

Oh man, what a nice bunch of finds, and a seated on top of it. That yard will probably cough up a few more oldies for you.
Have fun!
Mike
 
Great Finds!
It's always nice to have some good coin finds to hearken the arrival of spring! Nice Seated Quarter! I love the 1853 with rays!
 
great finds for your back yard! :headbang:
 
Thanks Deepdigger, I'm running a custom modified coin program right now that is only yielding finds at 7" max, so that should be helpful at finding those oldies that I know are there
 
awesome find from your own yard.
 
Very nice looking piece of silver :icon_thumright:
 
Wow, :o

Great finds...!! :icon_thumleft: I hope to get these kind of results when I get my new 12x14 SEF coil. ??? I can't wait.... :hello2:

Keep @ it and HH !! :D ;D
 
Awsome! I don't think Iv'e ever seen one dug.
 
Awesome seated with arrows no less !! I bet that put a smile on your face !! Keep swinging !! MaineRelic.
 
I don't know which is better, the quarter, or the photo showing no snow on the ground. You dun gut.

That is one for my wish list. A NICE Seated quarter.

Yours is a beaut. I like the arrows at the date; very classic.

If you had found that around here, it would have been 25 dirty pennies in the same hole.
That is my second dug seated quarter i found one last year but it was really worn almost smooth but its still a keeper .Good Hunting Jim
