Default Barber + Mercury dime

Hey, guys, I got out today with RP. We went to an area that has produced some old coins in the past for us. After ground-balancing my detector, I found a Wheatie at 2". There was a piece of junk next to it. But, my DD coil picked between it and gave me the "better" signal. Then, about an hour later, I got a nice "Dime" reading that pinpointed at 2". I was suprised to see a 1901 Barber dime come out of the hole. Lastly, about 15 minutes after the Barber, I got another "Dime" reading that pinpointed at 3". Out came this 1923 Mercury dime. Overall, I had a great day!

HH!

Keith, those are some great finds. I'd think about going back there. Always coins to be found. People simply miss them. They're waiting for you to show them the lite of day. Good luck! Keep us posted. greg
