hello i'm GOUGER......

.........and I hate Mercury dimes.......so I kill them with my screwdriver!

Seems like everytime I dig a nice coin.....I become "gouger". Actually this one was under a hot rock.....I dug the rock out, scanned the rock and it didn't sound the same, so pinpointed the hole, then saw this little victim..... :angry5:

I went hunting with BenC2 we hunted a little spot that is starting to produce......I would say about 10 wheats have come out, along with a war nickel, a mercury.....and modern coins.....I hope it will still produce..hoping for some bigger silver one day.. ;D

Nice gouged silver finds.... ;D. You might want to invest in a brass probe to eliminate gouges in coins. Other wise great digs.. :thumbsup:

Don't beat yourself up. We have all (or mostly all) gouged
something at one time.
Nice finds.

That's true, but only when we start out, you learn good when a nice rare coin or object is finally pulled from the ground and it has a large strip across it. YOU only do it once! Don't use a screwdriver or something like that, JUST dig a bigger hole when finding a object. Leave more room around the target.
