WE found a few oldies mixed in with 3.00 in clad. My brother found the Quarter about 8 inches down. I found the penny and dime 6 inches apart about 5-6 inches deep. Thanks for looking,Dan
All three of those are great looking coins! The SLQ has a nice readable date, which is unusual. The IH is in GREAT shape. Congratulations on a great hunt!
That Indian is beautiful, I have a 1900 it was one of my first finds.
It was very dirty and someone who I thought knew what they were
talking about told me to soak it in vinegar now its almost blank.
I also have a nice 1907 that has a nice green patina like yours.
Thanks everyone, We live in central Illinois. Are soil is wonderful, Sometimes I think the oldies sink to far for us to get to. The dime and penny were near an old tree, I did have to go through a few small roots. Maybe the roots kept them near the surface for us, 5 to 6 inches for those two, but we get clad deeper. Sometimes I don't get it.
Does anyone know how deep coins can go? I guess thats the big question. I know canslaw gets very deep. lol Thanks again, everyone
