Omg guys im still on cloud nine!, ill try to keep the rant to a minimum on this one!!. So I was headed up to the spot of my draped bust lc from 2 days ago because the owner said I can come back whenever I wanted and on my way I spotted this old farm home with a lady doing gardening so I said "eh why not, if she says no I already got a plan B" And of course I get the "someone was through here already" but she let me take a crack at it. all she asked was if she could see my finds before I left. So im gridding along and get a nice little 3 wheat spill and thought cool, it has potential. within about 10 feet of the three wheat spill I get a nice low 70s tone and it was deep, I figured indian and I was right, 1888!, my atpro was talking so sweet to me today, very faint repeatable tones like the one I got immediately following the indian. I got a whisper of a 89-91 and it was saying 10", easy sandy soil so I dug it and out pops the 1889 SEATED DIME!!!!!! my first seated In my opinion the holy grail of detecting finds! Heres a little video to tell the rest of the tale:
within 2 ft. of the seated out pops a 1902 barber!!!! I thought are you kidding me? 2 years with a merc being my oldest and I killed it today 1889 seated and 1902 barber! my phone died after the 1902 barber and I got 3 more Indians and a 1937 buffalo, then that sweet low whisper of a 89-91 at 10" again, I pop the plug and POW!! 1912 Barber!! un freaking believable!!, this place was supposed to be hunted out! I got some clad, a little junk , and 11 wheats total along with some trinkets and 2 intact harmonica reeds. I found 5 late 90s matchboxes and gave em back to the owner. Guys today is the best day of my detecting hobby by far! gonna be hard to beat, Silvers 15,16,and 17 are some doozies in my books! thanks for reading, watching, and HH!!
the last pic with the coins on my atpro is going to garrett, hopefully it gets me in the magazine!
