Went to an old park with T-Bucket and found these two nice dimes along with several clad rosies, thats where the cheating comes in. At least the 1876-cc seated and the 1920 merc were the other two. The seated was only 2 inches deep and came in as a solid penny signal, I had'nt dug anything in a while so I just said i'm going to pick up this penny. Just goes to show, dig everything. Found 5 wheats also, 1913- 1956. The excel 6 inch coil T-Bucket let me borrow was really working in all the pull tabs, Thanks T-Bucket, now I need one of those coils too Ha Ha. Thanks for looking.

Cool! I don't know that it was "cheating" so much as a little fudging, maybe...

Glad you got out there - very nice. :D

Sorry about the pics folks, used macro on my camera and cropped, still the pics are too big. Will have to work on that.

It's not cheating to call it a dime trifecta. It's just not a "silver" dime trifecta. But that 1876 CC more than makes up for that. Thats a nice find any day of the week. :thumbsup:
 
Nice going on your 2 silvers!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Anytime you can get a seated at 2", you better keep hitting that place.

It's fairly easy to resize your photos, if you already know how to crop them. Look for resize in your options of your program. I usually resize to about 1000 pixels across.

Are you an SE diehard now? I see you have a DFX also.

Congrats,

Thanks Nan and Evolution for putting up with a little cheating.

Thanks Dan. I use the Se most of the time has more depth, the dfx mainly stays parked, did use it on the beach during vacation, it worked good. My son also uses it from time to time. He is only 7 and also uses my prism, he has room to grow into it.
