I got off work this morning and had time to kill before having to go to the range to qualify for work. I had a permission nearby and figured I try a different mode on my AT Max to see if I could find anything further. I had beaten these field up and thought I’d squeezed everything out of them. I was pleasantly wrong!!! I got part of a suspended clip, an unknown date Wheatie, a 1928 Mercury dime, and a 1899 Barber dime!! Guess I’ll try the other modes and see what else happens!!

Nice old coins! :occasion14:
 
Nice!!! Congrats!!!
 
That great Jay trying new modes helped me big time yesterday. Love the 19th century barber. It’s beautiful buddy
 
Like the coin! but spare me the thread title ; don’t quit your day job to become a comedian.
 
Very nice finds!! Love that Barber, what mode did you use on the MAX if I may ask?
 
I was using zero mode and switched over to custom. I set the discrimination at 35 due to all the iron and removed all the notches. Really helped!!!
 
Great hunt & beautiful silver, congratulations on the saves
 
Hey, Jay.....NICE coins my friend -- Just think if you had found a clad dime, you would have had a "dime Trifecta".....Good Job & GOOD LUCK on your next "MODE setting" experiment.
