Finds are from the last 3 weeks since my last post. All finds were found at public city parks, old schools and one fairgrounds. One of the city parks used to be an old horse track.
Minelab eTrac with 12x10 coil was used for all finds.
The surprise find for me was the 1891 seated dime. It was pulled at public city park and was a very deep (about 11 inches) target. It had a really low ferrous reading until I turned but had good sound so I chased it expecting a bigger target.
I did re-check the hole and there was nothing with it.
The coin was angled in the ground. The 1894 V nickel was found at the same city park @ about 8 inches.
The 1895 and 1928 quarters were found on the same day at different sites.
Was nice detecting in the cooler temps for a change.
Thanks for taking a look!
