Found four silver dimes yesterday! Yeeehawww!!

[James in Alabama]

Hi Folks!

Well, we finally got a break from all the heat we've been having here in Alabama. Yesterday was a perfect day to go detecting at the fort where I always go hunting. Started off finding a few wheat pennies here and there, when I got a good dime signal at 3" deep. Dug the target and found my first merc of the day

A few hours or so later, I got a nice dime signal again at 2-1/2" deep and was surprised to see these three mercs laying in the same hole After retrieving the mercs, I swung the coil again and dug three wheat pennies that were still in the same hole

I had to reward myself by doing my famous hat trick...the famous AU break dance once again! Shucks, I even had a few fans watching me

Here's the mercs all cleaned up (wheat pennies not shown)

Well, that's it for now folks! Thanks for looking. Until next time.....

HH...James

Nice day! That fort sounds like it will keep you occupied for a long time.

Thanks halfdime I've been detecting the fort over four years and the place keeps giving up loads of silver. I don't think I'm gonna stop detecting there anytime soon No other place that's close to my home I've found like the fort.

Thank you Jim It's unusual finding more than one silver in the same hole. I've gotten lucky over the years. I've found as many as eight mercs in the same hole a few years back at the fort Haven't beaten that record yet.

Thanks Ivan ....haven't had a chance to check out the dates off the pennies since they're still dirty, but will clean tonight and post with those dates. I would imagine they are from the '40's.

Hello James

Real nice dimes, cong. Thanks for the laugh caused by the picture of the celeb. break dance. . I believe it's called break dancing because of the probability of someone breaking something,
so be careful. I loved your post.
