Hello Everyone,

Today, I visited an old park that has been hunted for years. Trying something different to find old coins this trip and using the Minelab Explorer SE with a 5” stealth coil. I worked a sloped grassy area for two hours, moving at a snail’s pace and digging only signals located in the upper right of the smart screen. This yielded a Barber quarter, Indian Head cent, Wheat Lincoln cent and a few modern clad coins.

Thank you for reading,

GL & HH

Way to go!
Still looking for my first BQ.
 

Slopes and hills are where I've found most of my silver coin spills. Well done
 

Nice!!! Congrats!!!
 

Congrats!I've had my Explorer II for a 12 years,It's a real silver slayer and I've found around 1400 silver coins with it,went to the CTX,better balanced but still a brick and found hundreds more silver.I got a Nox only because of the weight and at pushing 70,it's an issue,but it does not equal an Explorer on deep silver,and every so often I pull it out and do a hunt with it.

Congrats on your Barber and I.H. finds Professor. :thumbsup:
The best advice a friend gave me when I started detecting was to swing low and slow... but it sounds to me like you're no 'newbie' to detecting. :laughing7:

Nice job on the old coins Professor. Always nice to see a Barber Quarter come out of the dirt.
 

Great hunting...
 

Well done Professor. Great job pulling the goods out of a tough spot. I admire the people that hunt these spots that have been hammered for years. Much more talented than a guy like me that goes great distances into the woods to find old sites that haven’t been hunted.
 

LI Tom,

You are 100% right! The Explorer series detectors are killer on silver coins! :icon_thumleft:

Love it! Hard to believe this signals have been missed for years. Nice going!
 

Nice going Doc. Clearly your strategy is paying dividends!
 

Nice park hunt, really nice pulling the Barber, Indian & wheatie, that was a great day, congrats on the saves, GL & HH
 

Sweet finds Doc! Totally agree with the snail's pace theory..
