    Had a silver dime trifecta of a day!

    Went to my local park today, and immediately met-up with Lou, a fellow forum member and avid MD enthusiast. The noon time weather was cold, but it warmed up nicely by mid-afternoon. I decided to work a new section of the park in the outer edge of an old Baseball field. There were some old trees...

    #4 & #5 Barber,, #15 Mercury, Wheats, and a WWI Button

    Had the day off, and decided to try a new spot. Well, it didn't pan out like I had hoped. I had good research, and aerials showed this spot had a beach back in the 1920's. The surrounding foliage didn't look like it had been flipped, so I thought I was gonna be working a decent new area. It was...

    3 month totals: 869 coins, and 35 silver.

    Couldn't be happier about how lucky I've been. In just 3 months these are my totals Uploaded with ImageShack.us Uploaded with ImageShack.us Broke it down in the picture to show the variations of what I've been finding. I do acknowledge that I've been very fortunate to be hunting in such...

    Dug my 3rd Barber Dime in 30 days today.

    I wasn't having such a great hunt today. I was finding trash, trash, and more trash. Basically, a normal hunt for this hobby. I was getting discouraged. To make things worse, a pack of kids came up and wouldn't leave. They were such a pain in the a$$. Finally, most of them left, all but two of...

    Dug my first Standing Liberty Quarter! :super:

    I moved away from my honey hole today to work a different part of the park. It really wasn't that far from the tree I've been working, maybe 40-50 yards, but it was a different section regardless. The start of my hunt sucked. I was digging nothing but trash since I decided to open-up my pattern...

    4 SILVER w/ 1898 BARBER DIME~!

    Right by my "tree" I found some silver today, and a LOT of trash. Only had a few hours to hunt since it was my gf's B-Day today, so I went back to the area that's been productive, and hit a few quarters, and the oldest dime yet. It was way too cold to be hunting today, but glad I did...

    2 Mercs, 3 Cent coin, 3 Buffalo nickels, Wheats, and Colonial Copper?!

    What a day! It just gets better and better every time I hit this park. So, a little recap. I stumbled upon a new honey hole. I'd like to call it the "Money Tree" since all of my finds the last few days have been around this really old tree with giants roots that stretch out on top of the soil...

    4 more silver today. 3 Mercs, a ring, & 19 Wheats!

    Today I went back to the area that gave-up 3 silver dimes the other day. I decided to focus on an area that looked like it was an old path at one time. People always take short-cuts. This spot has a lot of old trees that are all in a line. It just makes sense that people would cut through this...

    BEST WEEKEND YET! MY FIRST BARBER DIME! 1916-D Mercury?:)

    Before you read this story, it was written last night BEFORE I had an expert evaluate my Mercury dime. As it turned out it wasn't what I thought, but I didn't want to edit the whole story, so here it is. This has turned out to be my best day yet. Where should I even start? Screw it, lets just...

    60 days with the E-Trac = 665 coins.

    Just finished adding up all the clad, silver, and wheats, and I have a total of 665 coins now for January and February. I doubt I'll get out to hunt again until March (this weekend), so today was my last hunt for my first 60 days of 2012. Not bad. I'm starting to think my honey hole is done...

    Blue Star Sapphire Silver Ring, silver Owl pin, clad.

    Found my second silver ring of the year (ever) with a blue star sapphire gem on it. Also, a silver Owl pin. When I wrote this up I originally thought this was pewter, but after taking a magnifying glass to the back it says "SILVER MEXICO" on it. Not bad! Clad as usual, and I made a few videos...

    $6.13 in clad today, a lot of quarters!

    Decided to get out in this ridiculous weather again. No rain, just snow this morning briefly, and then very high winds. So to change it up a bit I skipped the park I always hunt, and instead, went to the playground next to my daughters school. The kids have their recess there every day. Well, I...

    HUGE Pocket spill...24 coins in one hole.

    Of course it was all pennies. :mad: 24 pennies in one hole and not ONE dime, nickel, or quarter? C'mon. All modern clad. Then I moved 2 feet over and hit 5 Wheats. Two of them were 1919. I was working an old Estate that hasn't been around since the 40's. Tons of trash, but did pretty well with...

    10 WHEAT DAY

    10 Wheaties, and some clad. Worked a new section today near where I found the Mercury dime last night, and this place was surrounded by old pennies. Sooner or later it'll cough-up some more dimes and quarters. Uploaded with ImageShack.us

    Silver Irish claddagh ring, Mercury dime, and 5 Wheats!

    What a good day. My first ring, and it's a silver Irish claddagh. Another Merc, my 7th, and a ton of clad. Great day, even though I started my hunt late today. :) Uploaded with ImageShack.us Uploaded with ImageShack.us Uploaded with ImageShack.us Uploaded with ImageShack.us...

    Weekend hunt and pics of digital camo wrap on E-Trac

    Went back to the park and worked a Baseball field on Saturday. This one gave-up a lot of clad. Today I went and re-worked my lucky spot, and only found a few coins. Also found a weird silver thing, a toy soldier, and a lot of junk. Sadly I didn't find any silver coins this weekend. I came close...

    My "sweet spot" gives up silver #7 and #8 today!

    Had two hours to hunt today, but was cut short when I got really sick. I think it's the flu. yay! Go me. ugh. Anyway, went back to my "Lucky Light-post" and started huntin. Hit two silver quarters almost side by side about a foot apart off the path. A 1948, and 1964. What a great few days. That...

    6 silver weekend! 4 more tonight in my "spot"

    Today has been my best day to date. The whole weekend was just awesome. Last night I found two silver, a Merc and a Quarter. Both were in the same 2x2 spot. Then today I go back to work the same area and I meet two of the guys from the forums also hunting the park. I don't believe in keeping a...

    Hit a little 1940's pocket spill with silver in it today!

    So today didn't start-off as I had planned. My goal was to get to the park and hunt by 9AM. I got up early, on time, and ran a few errands. One of which was to get my hair cut. While I was at the barbers, my barber told me that he and his friends used to clean their cars back in the 50's in a...
