3rd trip to the hill...includes a half dollar!

[DFX-SE Gregg]

This was my third trip to the hill, I have named it "Nickel Hill". I have recovered 34 nickels in 3 trips alone. Today finished first half of the hill completely. Got a 74 Kennedy half, 41 wheatie, bicentennial quarter, a casino token and 73 more coins. Today I gridded 10 x 10 areas using small utility flags and worked very slowly... The half was 5.0 down, the wheatie 6.0 Hopefully the other side is as good! I have included a picture of "Nickel Hill".

Now that's a LOT of nickels from one area!!!

I don't have a "nickel hill" around me that I know of. One of my huntin' buddies found a "Wheatie Tree" when we were detecting a yard once. There were over 40 Wheaties all around a big white pine tree and one silver roosie. My guess is that kids were climbing the tree and hanging upside-down on the limbs.

I'm still looking for "seated grove" but have thus far been unsuccessful.

Congrats on the cool huntin' spot!!!

That's a productive hill for sure. Good day Greg. love the halfer! Keep em coming dude!



oh ya...go Bears!!

Look which team you are rooting for now! Made a little change!

You sneaky bugger!

OK go Bears!!!

a little reverse psycology...
like when I place a bet. I suck so bad at it, I pick the team I think will win then bet the opposite.

I quit betting years ago...I tried that also....nothing worked for me....

Thanks..the half came up as a quarter! Maybe because of depth...

I have to work very hard to find any older coins....even with gridding I was only able to pull the one deep wheatie and the half. As far as coin trees....I have had memorial cent trees...over 40 on surface at once...and a dime tree 16 in a row. No other trees....but I see a lot of people who have an opportunity to hit some type of concert grounds have some great days with quarters!
