Primary Interest:
Metal Detecting
The Nox is hitting Barber Dimes consistently.

Friday and Saturday I met up with pa_dirt for some areas of interest then Sunday I made it out for a newly researched area solo.

The weekend produces a US Army Disc, 1916, 1902, 1898 Barber Dimes, 1889? & 1905 Indian, 1907 & dateless Vs, old lion knife, Regent Square Bottling Works 6 1/2 oz, silver jewelry piece that hit at VDI 20, and most of my other finds.

Close up on possible double die on the 1898 Barber?

That's all for now, good luck out there!

Haha I'm trying, this is the last full month mostly without poison ivy and mosquitos.
 
Very Nice!!! Nice haul for sure!!! Congrats!!!
 
Nice finds Louis! You are really in tune with your Nox. It’s been fun seeing your successful transition from the ATP. Keep researching new sites and you will reach 100 FTY. Congrats
 
I've notice that the box LOVES silver dimes. Dunno why, but however they programmed/wired it, it seems to lock onto them hard. Nice finds!
 
Wow a Games of Thrones knife!
 
Quite the score- Congrats for all those awesome finds!
 
Here is a clearer full picture of the possible double die or double strike.

Odd looking 1898 alright. I don't believe it's a doubled die however. More like machine doubling with a strange rim strike. Maybe it was in a bezel at one point? :dontknow: Almost looks like a counterfeit or cast copy in some areas, but, not all.
 
Fantastic hunt that is some good finds I myself need to travel a little and get out to some new spots. Great job and stay safe. Tommy
 
Awesome hunt, congrats! :icon_thumleft:
 
Wouldn't be a proper post from you without a few Barbers. Congrats!!
