Great day in the old park. Hit one of the pounded, hunted to death Albany City parks this afternoon. Started off slowly with only a 1907 Indian head cent after the first hour. Moved to an area where I dug a nice War of 1812 button years ago and that's when things started to heat up. First good target was a 1906 V nickel. Next, nice deep hit I pull out a 1838 large cent but something else is in the hole, dig down a little deeper and pull out an 1864 two cent piece. A few minutes later, not more than 30 feet away, another deep signal results in a second 1864 two cent piece. Maybe 15 minutes after that, another deep hit results in a fat 1863 indian head cent but again, another sweet sounding target is still in the hole. Couldn't believe it when I pull another 1864 two cent piece from the hole. In 32 years I never dug more than one two cent piece in an outing. To get three of them and a large cent in less than an hour was truly amazing.

The largie and two centers coulda been masking some silver which may or may not have made the hunt even better. Grats and thanks for posting.
 

I was hoping for silver but rescanned the holes and nothing. But I'm not complaining, I'll take the old coppers.
 

What luck finding a trio of 2 Cent pieces in one hunt!..:icon_thumright::icon_thumright::icon_thumright: plus your other finds!
 

The hot streak continues! Great finds my friend- your SE Pro is on fire!
 

That's WICKED cool!!!!! CONGRATZ....
 

Good grief dude, that’s crazy! Looks like I should’ve packed my detector on my work trip to Albany a couple years back. Nice going.
 

Very good old coins
 

Awesome hunt, you & your machine were both in tune for sure, the coins look pretty nice condition, congrats on the saves & HH
 

Holy cow!! Awesome finds right there. Congrats!
