First Silver Dime Trifecta

[Sooper Dave]

I went to a place after work yesterday that I hunted at several times last year and had pulled out a few pieces of silver. I went over the area with my 10x12 SEF coil, but after hunting for over an hour and a half I only had found about 10 wheaties. I was trying to go over spots I've never been over, like in the overgrown fence rows but just couldn't get any good signals. I was headed back to my truck and decided to hit a spot right behind it. I got a nice signal right below the surface and was blown away when I saw it was an 1897 Barber Dime. I showed my kids and while my son was snapping a picture of it I got another decent signal and out popped the Merc. At this point we are flipping out that we pulled two silver dimes in a row. He took some shots of the Merc and I continued to hunt and my next signal was the Rosie! I had just dug my first dime trifecta within such short time of each other all in a row! It's crazy how fast a hunt can turn around. HH David

Congratulations! Great finds that's funny because once when I was walking back to my car at a park I decided to metal detect as I was walking back to get new batteries and two feet from the curb I hit a silver coin spill! I posted it on this website it was on Mother's Day. Awesome job !

Hey thanks and man that's awesome! I've read a lot of success stories on that way back to the car. Hey you got a link to your post from that spill you found? What all did you dig out of there?

I'm glad you shared it, that's one amazing spill! You just never know what you will dig up next. It's great you found it in a park, just think about how many people walked over that and may have even swung a detector over it as well.
