I have had very little hunt time lately due to family health issues that are much more important than detecting. :angel7: Today I was able to squeeze in 3 1/2 hours in between hospital visits...at a site that in the 90's would always produce a wheatie or two...an occasional injun....and back in the 80's...YIKES I'm old ;D ...a seated or barber.
I just pounded this area a few weeks ago with the 1050 coil...and pounded it DRY...at least for my hunting style...and my settings. ::)
Well today it was a different coil...and I also gridded the spot in a different direction. The results...ALL DEEP oldies. :thumbsup:
Three of the 5 injuns came from 10" down...and the other two came from 8" and 9". :wink:
The 1853 seated dime was 7" down...and completely vertical. I have never dug a coin that was 100% straight on edge like this one was. It gave a clad dime type of hit and locked about 1/2" out of the top right corner. The sound was not great...but obviously nice enough for me to investigate. Once I saw the way it was setting in the ground...I was amazed I was even able to get a decent signal at all. What a nice surprise. :icon_sunny:
Sorry for the short post...but I'm heading to the hospital again. It did me wonders to put the headphones on even if it was only for 3 1/2 hours. For that short period of time my mind was clear and worries were overtaken by a calm. :angel11:

Great bunch of coins! Sweet seated!
You sure do a good job of debunking the whole "hunted out" myth! lol.
Glad you could get out. I know it definately helps me, as a kind-of peaceful, relaxing type of therapy.
Until my back is breaking that is!
Congrats on the great finds!
And good luck with the health issues you're dealing with.
Thanks BK. It really did help...and I appreciate your comments about my family health siutuation.
 

Nice Digs! Congratulations on a wonderful hunt.
I truly wish you the very best on the health issues. May you find some peace along the way. I think whoever is in the hospital is very lucky to have you by their side. You obviously are a stand up guy. Good Luck!

Thanks Derek. . You hit the nail on the head with that one. Quite a few of my 80's sites are non existent now. Either something sittin' on....or there's nothing there now :D
