These are just the finds from a medium size front yard in a 50's milltown neighborhood. One old Oak and a Magnolia tree is all there is. The Barber quarters are in the best shape that Ive found. 1909 and 1914. My only other one was worn smooth and barely could see date. I found these 8" off the base of the Magnolia tree at about 6". When I fliped the plug one was in the bottom of hole and the other in the plug. Filled the hole, took a couple of swings toward the frt of tree and got another high tone. This was just under the grass roots at 3 inches. The rest of coins were along the sidewalks and driveway. The ground was mild and easy digging compared to some of the lots in the area. Very little clad and dug every repeatable signal. The buffalo is a 1936. 9 wheats from 40's and 50's. 44 wheats so far this year. The ring is costume and the forth of the year. Adding the 35 Merc and 52 Rosie makes my silver coin count this year at 15. One of my best yard hunts yet.
