Hi Everyone! went to a place I recently received permission to hunt. It has been hit before but not by a minelab!!!!!!!! I really love my 10x12 SEF coil, this thing sniffs out silver like a bloodhound. anyway, to make a long story short, 3 1/2 hours after I started hunting I wound up with these. an 1899 barber dime, an 1892 "O" Barber dime in super shape! it is the nicest barber I have ever dug! and a 1903 "O" barber dime, then i dug a 1941 Merc, and finally an 1888 Indian. everything except the penny was at least 8+ inches!!! the 1892 O was 8-9 inches down and I swear it was on edge!! I know this for a fact because I dug the hole wrong and when I was pinpointing I found it on the bottom edge of the hole and I wiped the dirt with my finger and I saw it still in place! anyway, this is my first three barber day!! just thought I would post something, I havent had any really super finds to post lately.


UPDATE: I went back for an hour or so yesterday evening( i only had about an hour and a half before dark) I had put on my 6 inch excellerator coil and went slow over ground I had already been over. I found several more indian head pennies, and a super nice 1895 "V" Nickel, I was headed back towards the truck(it was getting dark)and I thought I would just kinda swing while I walked when I got this super solid 00-29 quarter signal! the smartfind on my Explorer se was buried in the upper right-hand corner and I thought for a second "deep iron" because I was swinging kinda fast. I dug it and at about 6-7 inches was this gorgeous 1891s Seated Liberty quarter with all the late 1800's coins I am finding I am convinced there is going to be a gold coin there!!! I am going to keep updating this thread as i find more stuff. I am going again this evening. hopefully there will be a new post tomorrow.

Well, I'm starting to think I might have a "virgin" spot!!!! see my update!!
I know parts of this site have been hit. I must have found a good size area that is a virgin spot!!! I am finding some killer old coins that I don't think anyone could have missed.
 
Awesome bunch of coins. You can't beat a Minelab.

Awesome group of finds and Minelabs are indeed awesome!
Big congrats on the Seated Quarter ... Those are awesome and is one of the highest coins left on my to find list, seated dimes come up much easier than seated quarters...
 
Awesome stuff. I wish I could find that kinda treasure.
