Silver Trifecta 1st for Me!!

[lonelyduckhunter]

Only been at metal detecting for about about 2 months for all the doubter of the Ace 250 I say don't knock it till you try it. Went to a spot thats been producing solid finds everytime out but today I got the Trifecta and my best silver day yet 4 in 2 hours.

Love it when you find more silver and wheaties then clad.Total for the day included

1911 Barber Dime
1941 Mercury Dime
1943 War Nickel
1955 Washington Quarter
7 Wheat Pennies
1911
1930
1942
1944
1945
1950
1951D

On a cool note a young very respectful kid came up to me to inquire how I was doing. I showed him and he struck up a conversation how he just started collecting coins and had never seen anyone's of the ones I had so I gave him the 1950 wheat he was on cloud 9 and thanked me at least 20 times with a big grin everytime. For only being metal detecting for a few months I'm having a ball and getting very lucky at the same time. My oldest coin so far is a 1898 Barber Quarter out of this same area.

Congrats on the nice silver coins. The good deed makes us all look good.

Nice silver day. I got a big smile from the story of the buddung coin collector. I have had similar occurrences. Seeing a pop eyed grin on a kid is simply great. Keep up the good work.

I think that qualifies as a Quadfecta! Nice finds there. I recently upgraded from an Ace250 to an Explorer II. The minelab is a whole lot more capable, but I'll NEVER give up my Ace. It is one heck of a machine.

Very nice stuff right there. The silvers are popping out quite often for you. Congrats and thanks for giving the sport a big thumbs up with the kid. He will remember that forever. In fact he may be a competitor soon....Jgas

Technically, I believe a trifecta refers to finding 3 different types of coin of the same denomination, e.g. if you had found a silver barber, mercury and rosie dime. I have no clue what it would be called if a seated was added to the mix...perhaps a quadfecta as someone previously mentioned.

In any event, SUPER FINDS!!!!

You guys are the lucky ones, I can't get any work done with texting me a different silver find every 15 minutes. LDH, you should have posted the Barber quarter.

Cool I always thought a trifecta was 3 different denomination of silver coins. I'll try for the real trifecta in a the next day or two.

I believe that would be called a Grand Slam...

4 silvers in a day would be a home run for me or a touchdown!

Good job! Are you hunting a park, homesite?

 

[deepbeep]

That "gift" was a small thing that rendored huge results. That kid will probably never forget that!

Nice job! and.....nice silver coins too!!
