Honest Abe Rescued Yesterday afternoon!!!

[Hardrock]

Hi All:

I recently purchased an E-trac,I set a goal to go out daily when weather permitted this past month and work two selected sites that have been detected hard. I have been doing just that but at one site yesterday I found a small coin spill and it was amongst trash,lots of it. The E-trac set to an old park set up from the Sabish book did great and there will be a following story on the first month of finds.
I hit this mutiple signal some weak etc and following the books ideas I worked around until hitting locks on the "good signals". At 6" I recovered the first indian 1898,then the second,1898,the third 1907,the last 1906,swept the site and in the middle was the wheat penny all about the same depth and 4 of the five coins on edge. I was tickeled and had a good hunt overall,weather was still cool here but clear out.The ground is very moist and perfect to work. Now these are not rare or such but a 4 indian,with a wheat spill is fun to find for sure. Enjoy the pics. Hardrock

Nice ratio of Indians to Wheaties!

Don't you just love pocket spills? I've found them for clad, but never silver or old coppers. WTG

Reminds me of the old Tom Landry commercial that had him surrounded by angry Redskins; I think it was for American Express. Nice finds, by the way.
