Haven't been out much, and have not posted in awhile.
In the last 2 weeks, i have managed to get out 2 times. The first time, i got a couple barber dimes and mercks. Some IHs, and what I believe is the top of a silver match safe.
Today was a different story.
I had a few hours to kill, and I was close to a spot that has been sooo good to me over these last 2 years.
My choice today was to pick a hot area and dig everything! I mean iron and everything.
Well, it worked out!! Alot of work but it worked out. I cant believe how much is still in this place being masked! I bet I haven't even scratched the surface???
All these keepers, and not 1 great signal.
Lets take for example the LC. It had 4 pieces of round iron in the hole.
When the LC popped out I was dumb founded. Like, NO WAY??? LOL
Anyway just wanted to share my experience today with my peeps. Haha.
This is why there is soooo much stuff still in the ground.
The capped is a 1827, same as my half I dug in the summer. The 1/2 reale is 1800. The LC is 1837.
I even found a Canadian LC, and a young Victoria 1872.
The Louisiana tax token is really cool
And I always like fatty IHs. Its a 1863.
Thanks for looking, and it goes to show, DIG EVERYTHING if the site is old!!!
George

Fantastic bunch of finds, George! I have been working on a high-iron colonial site & am constantly amazed that I keep pulling stuff out of the same small area-I'm up to 26 flat buttons and counting. Also I have one of those Louisiana tax tokens; cool find.
 

George is out there killing it! Nice finds!
 

I was waiting on you to get back in the groove George, and you certainly did that in a big way. I don't think I've ever seen that many different silvers dug from the same site in a single hunt. And congrats on adding another Spanish to your collection, and thanks for giving us renewed hope for our pounded sites. Super hunt!!!

Thanks Bill,
Always a good day when you can add another Spanish to your collection.
 

Way to go George- silver Spanish and a capped. Haven't been able to get out much lately myself, but did manage a few buttons today.

A few more buttons? Go figure. Lol
And im sure there cast pewters.
 

Ah WOW! Don't know what else to say! I have been digging more "iffy" signals amongst trash and have found a lot more Indian heads, and found my first seated dime earlier in the year. After seeing this post I'm going back to some previously hunted sites to see what I can find.
Congratulations!! Enjoy HH

Thanks DD.
I dont even what to think what were walking over on thouse sites.
 

Great finds george!, I don't think I've ever seen a dime grand slam ever posted before, figures you'd be the one to do it lol!, you've had a great year, hopefully you post a killer 2015 year end tally

Thanks Chris.
I think I will make it out 1 or 2 more times. Then thats it. I have alot I want to do are the house this winter before my trip to England.
I do plan on a nice year end post since this year has been beyond my wildest dreams..lol
Dont believe I can top it in firsts or quantity. But hopefully I will be able to find some killer Quality next year??? Thanks for coming along on the ride..
 

Wow!! Once again, you do not disappoint! Great stuff, and thanks for sharing.
 

Wow, you freakin' smashed it!
 

Heck of a day Vino! Congrats on all the great finds
 

You have amazed me again. Great finds!
 

I am so incredibly impressed and happy that you pulled all that treasure out of the ground! Love the key and just dream of finding a capped some day. Congrats!
 

Nice finds. Its about time the wife let you out of the house.
Now you have me thinking about digging a bunch of iron this weekend.
So what was the pounds of iron per coin ratio ???

If you ever want to trade some tax tokens for large cents let me know. lol.
 

nice coins great day detecting congrats

Can't wait to see your year-end post. I thinks favorite of yours is that large Prussian silver you found on that pub hunt we did.
