40's era coin spill saves the day

Got out for a few hours yesterday around an 1880's era home that I thought was very promising. Junk, junk, junk and more junk. I searched the yard very thoroughly and all I could come up with was a pouch full of junk and a couple clad. About a half hour before calling it a day, I got a nice signal at the base of a giant pine tree. First coin out was the Washington quarter. I actually put the plug back in before I rechecked the hole and I was still getting a great coin signal. Out pops a mercury dime, then another. Then I pulled four wheat cents, a buffalo nickel with no date and an early 40's Jefferson nickel. I was still getting a great signal after that and pulled out a no date standing liberty quarter. The spill saved what had been a very uneventful day. I have found lots of coin spills in the past, but in my recollection I have never pulled multiple silver from the same hole. Great finish to the day! HH

Very cool! You can never tell. I have hunted all day and found something just as I was stopping for the day. I managed to pull something out of the ground right at the last minute today.

Sweet silver score! Good job

Nice find! I pulled 70 cents in silver out of a hole last fall. It's always nice to find a silver pocket dump. About 30 years ago I hit a 17 coin pocket dump and the last coin out of the hole was a Barber half dollar.

Isn't it amazing how a place just screams "old coins " at you, and usually disappoints? Glad you didn't have that problem. Super hunt

Congrats on the spill. I found almost the exact same spill last year, but with only one wheat. Same no date SLQ, one Washington, two mercs, One Buff, and one Jefferson. Way to go.
