The first signal I get with my pinpointer in the hole I notice what I thought were 2 wheaties stuck together. Rub off a little dirt and to my surprise they end up being IHC's! Very cool! So, I stick the pinpointer down the hole again to make sure I get everything: bing, another hit. This time I pull out 3 coins stuck together; again, IHC's. I kept the trio together until I got home to better photograph them before separating them (see photo). All these were found at one of the oldest (and probably most hunted) parks in my hometown, in the grass area between the road and sidewalk (see photo). Totally unexpected. They're in rough shape (any cleaning tips?), but it was cool to find them.

Later in the day I hit a second park out of town and managed to get silver on top of everything else. I was a good day :thumbsup:

Excellent finds on the tribe. Congratulations.
 

Groovy find! Try vinegar and water bath (50/50) for about 15 minutes, then attack em with a toothbrush.
 

Alchemist...... Thanks for the reply. I'm not competing with you just think it's fun to see what the Safari can do since I've only had it a year. Always nice to know another detectorist is out there and we can enjoy each other finds and success. Keep your finds coming really enjoy seeing them....
 

Thought you might like to see some sliver from that park I found today. It was the only park cool enough to go to today.

wonderful finds! No competition, just good fun ribbing. That Safari is treating you well. I was tempted to hit the park again today (WAY cooler near the lake), but hit Deland instead. One wheatie ('26). Good to know Cole is still producing. Get up the good work!
 

Lovely spill, hats off to that guy from along time ago. Keep going over that spot maybe they didn't hit it as much
 

Nice surprises! Congrats!
 

That's a first for me. I never seen a IH spill post. congrats
