Three Silver Coins In One Hole !

[E-Trac-Ohio]

A Contractor I know is renovating a 1800's house for resale and he told me that I could hunt the yard.
The yard is very small - found nothing in the backyard and only one Wheat Cent in the side yard.
Then nothing in again in the front yard except another Wheat Cent.
After a half an hour or so I was beginning to think this yard was a real waste of time.
Then swinging along a some old concrete steps that go down to the road I got a nice Dime range hit - a Mercury Dime just saved the day.
Swinging over the same hole again - got another hit - a Silver Washington Quarter - put the Pin Pointer in the hole - out pops a Barber Quarter !
All three of the Silver coins were in the same 6" diameter hole and were about 6" to 7" down.

Mercury Dime - 1944
Barber Quarter - 1915-D
Washington Quarter - 1943
Wheat Cents - 1941 & 1944

Good Hunting !

Not finding much, do you feel been detected in the past?

Very nice little spill

Yes, someone must have hunted this site in the past.
No coins in the usual places except for two Wheat Cents.
The Silver coin spill was in a real tight spot under a bush close to a old set of concrete stairs.
