The day of 1920-S Silvers

[asmerri]

Had a couple hours to hunt today after work before the sun went down. I decided to keep using the Deus to continue the learning curve. I headed to a 1890 home that I had hunted numerous times before with the e-trac, CTX 3030 and the Deus. I decided to go REALLY slow and pick out deep signals. It really paid off! The first signal was very loud and only about 6" down. I'm not sure how I missed this signal before. A solid 90-93 on the Deus. Popped the plug and immediately saw a silver rim. Plucked it out to discover a 1920-S SLQ in extremely nice shape. My 3 of the year. As it was getting dark I got another faint silver signal. I dug down around 8" and popped out a shotgun shell end. Luckily I re checked my hole because the silver signal was still there. Pulled out a pretty little 1920-S merc. A good 2 hour hunt for me! Thanks for looking!

That's odd to find two older S-mint coins of the same year... in Texas. Makes you wonder if someone was visiting from California and dumped their pockets. In similar fashion, my best coin find was a 1903-S dime that I dug in upstate NY! I guess these Cali. coins got passed around quite a bit back in the day.

Not many finds are better than a Stander with a readable date! WOO HOO!

Nice finds. The standing liberty is in great shape. About a month ago I found two 1920 SLQs the same day.

Wow man! I think both of those have even more detail than mine! Looks like a sweet hunt. I'm still looking for my first Walker.

Thanks! Keep at it, the first one is the hardest to find. They will turn up way more often after you score your first. I find kocking on doors at old houses is your best chance for old coins.
