I do not know if this would be classified as a cache, but the Barber coins were found within a twenty square foot area. I found these close to an old fair grounds dating back to the 1890s. The Barber quarter dates 1898. The seven Barber dimes date 1902, (2) 1910, 1911, and (2) 1913. Also found last week was 5 Wheat pennies, an old silver plated spoon, a knife, and a broken glass doorknob. I plan to go back to the fair grounds after it rains and cools off a little.

Thanks for all tne nice replies. I plan to go back in about 3 weeks. I am hoping the owner will mow the field next to where I found the silver.

Nice digs! I tend to think that coin caches are multiple coins found in the same hole or within inches from each other. If you find multiple coins in 1 square yard that might be constitute a "spill".

What do other forumites think?

I agree with this dude. I would classify that as a coin spill. That would get one's heart pumping.
