Went Park hunting with 007 today.....Met a guy that drove down from Wisconsin as well...............Today was Nickle day for me......It was easier to concentrate,and I was swingin Low & S-L-O-W..............I took pictures of all the trash I found as well..........I found a buck in clad 13 wheats,4 Indians.......a couple pre 1960 jeffersons,,,a 1943p war nickle,,,,6 buffaloos...4 V McNickles,,,a 1942 merc,,,a 1920d merc,,,and a 1914 barber dime in really Good shape....I tried melding the 2 cleaning methods of Lime Away,and Vinegar & salt.......I ruined the Indians,,,as I soaked them in Lime Away....A NO NO.....the copper from the I.H'S leached into 4 buffs as I think you can tell......Lesson learned too not do that again...Atleast they were not key dates.....H.H.

But seriously, what they hell are you doing to get so many coins?????????? Outstanding!!!!

I'm glad Mike got a fair share today too, or he might of been salty... and this was in a spot he hunted before? Holy crap. The gophers must be pushing everything around.

I will leave that up to Mike to tell you......I dont know the exact ground he covered,but I found 2 buffs,a V nickle , the 20d merc,and the barber close to where I seen he had hunted.......Just going Low and S-L-O-W.....It helps in picking up those low conductors..
 

Great hunt, Dave!!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

That Barber and the '42 are outstanding!!! :o

Don't you just hate ringless beavertails? >:(
 

Holy Heck!!! Those are some beautiful coins! What a haul! Congrats Dave,,, I don't know if I could dig that many holes in a day.... :o
