Sunday afternoon Michelob (Mike) called and said he was available to hunt on Monday. Only having a few hours before heading back to chicago we ended up meeting at the park I had hunted on Sunday.
Just before Mike arrived I got a great signal 00-30 at 8-9" I knew it was silver, 1910 Barber Quarter.

I had just recovered the Quarter when Mike pulled up, I showed him the Barber and we chatted for a couple minutes then back to the hunt.
5 minutes later I got a soft silver sound at 8-10" and called Mike over to compare signals. He agreed it was probably silver was a 1906 Barber Dime.
20 minutes later Mike is walking toward me with a big smile, Check this out Seated Dime.

Looks like a great trip Ron. Im glad you had a chance to hunt a little bit with Mike. He was so excited when he called me after finding his seated dime.

You had a great haul yourself with some great old coins and the beautiful gold ring from a few days ago. Congrats!!!!

I only wish we had more time. Thanks for comparing signals with me also. I was only able to stay another hour and had to leave to help out a friend in need. But I pulled two more goodies. I will post them up next.

Anytime you land a Seated Dime and a Barber Quarter during a weekend you're going home one happy camper. Congrats on some nice digs! Hope the Silver keeps coming out for you and Good Luck and HH to you on your next outing as well.
