Went out with my buddy Roy to a really nice wooded area that we've hunted in the past that had yielded some silver. This was a nice 5 hour hunt on a beautiful day last Saturday and it was nice to give the CTX a good spin in a quality area. The hunt netted some really nice coins. I got 4 Barbers, 2 indians, a V nickel, and couple pieces of old jewelry. I also got a mercury dime on a short hunt on Friday. The quarters were 1894, 1894 o, 1895, and the barber dime was 1897. Roy got 4 silver also. He got a barber quarter, 2 barber dimes, and a merc. Great hunt and the coins were in great shape! Here's the pics!

By the way, I really like the CTX. I've taken to it really quick and I really like the 4 tone ID. Thus far, I've got 7 silver, 3 Large Cents, V nickel, Buffalo, bunch of wheats, and an old cracker jack token.

That's awesome beef..
How do you like the CTX compared to the ET.
At this pace you will have like 300 silver for the year...

Wow, Brian! What a hunt! :shocked04:

Not only three Barber Quarters in one hunt, but three early ones from the 1800s! :drool:

And that Barber Dime is in immaculate condition! :loveit:

Man, if you keep posting results like these I'm gonna have to think about getting a CTX myself! :thinkingabout:

Grove...old one...just a wooded hillside now. One would never guess anything would have been there. Still kinda baffles me why people would have went there. There's much nicer areas nearby.
