I'm 65 cents richer!

I broke out my detector for the first time this year. I was wanting to hunt a new fur trade site, but when I got to the general area the snow was to deep to hunt that site. So I fell back on a old fur trade site that has been detected for the past 40 years. I thought that I would do some fringe hunting to see if I could come up with a trinket. I parked on the side of the highway and walked across to the other side. Turned on the detector and got about 20 yards when I hit a signal. I rolled my eyes saying to myself gees should I even dig it. It was right next to a dirt bike path and I really figured it was just parts to a motocross bike. But Like I do I dig the trash out to rid the site, and to my surprise I came up with three coins that were well used. A half dollar 1867 a dime 1869 and a 5 cent shield date unknown? out of that hole. The rest of the day was digging the trash. But I was super stoked with the cache of coinage. It really made my day!

wow, thats really great!
 
Nice finds! It's always the ones you consider not digging!
 
That's too cool .

Some of my best finds were first Signals of the day. , Many followed by hr's of trash.

Worn , Holed or not old type coins are always a welcome find.

Now what about this side of the Highway parking??

I been known for common "break Downs".
 
Congratz on a nice spill!
 
Congrats on some nice finds, sure made it easier to dig that trash
 
Those coins had been in many pockets before being dropped,but they are great finds none the less. Not too many seated half dollars have been posted lately.
 
Wow! That's an awesome spill! That will make you forget about all the trash!
