**UPDATE BELOW** I was going to the park and the oldest church in my town was having the front dug up. I asked if I can run my detector over it and they said you have 20 minutes before church starts. I got 4 memorials and a 1853 Seated O Half Dime and she’s mint!! I’m going back after 4 o’clock and swing in there till 7. Wish me luck [emoji1360] IMG_2799.jpgIMG_2798.jpgIMG_2794.jpgIMG_2795.jpg

Beautiful half dime! :occasion14:
 

UPDATE

Went back and got me a small pocket spill.1912 D Barber Dime and a IHC 1908. There’s a huge pile of dirt so since I need some dirt fill for my lawn I’m gonna go ask if I can have it. IMG_0012.jpg IMG_0012.jpgIMG_0012.jpgIMG_0012.jpg

Very nice! A bunch of my best finds were from a tear out. Small town OK, main road out the front of a 1880's Courthouse. They were resurfacing the road and took all the bitumen out. Found a 1895 Barber half, lots of V nickels, gold ring.....all period. I always keep an eye open for tear outs. Anyway, congrats of a great find, hope you have more success.

I only found one 1900 O Half Barber and I wear it around my neck. The Barber Half club is awesome!! Congratulations
 

It might take you a while to find stuff but when you do you ain’t messing around. That’s one beautiful coin :occasion14:

Racso it’s strange this year I’m no where near the volume compared to years before but the quality is blowing my mind. Lots of bucket listers this year.
 

Way to go Truth! That's a beautiful coin, and you get bonus points for maximizing this great detecting opportunity. Congrats!
 

My friend is a real coin freak and is tripping out on this coin he sent me this.
IMG_2813.jpgIMG_2814.jpgIMG_2815.jpg I’m bringing it to my coin dealer tomorrow and if he says send it out I’m gonna get my first coin certified.
 

That’s a pretty incredible find my friend. Just too bad it’s got those pesky little arrows lol. Great find none the less!

This place is a mine of good, old targets. Ask for all the dirt!! You can always list it on Craigslist for free if you don’t need it all [emoji23]

I’ll buy a truckload from you if you can get it to Seattle for a reasonable price. Unsearched of course [emoji23]

Oh I definitely will need all the dirt my property was built on Clay about 6 inches down and gets watered out. I’m going to angle it to my next-door neighbors backyard the one I don’t like.
