Seven Old Silver Dimes

[angellionel]

It's been a busy week so I hadn't planned to detect until this weekend. I just couldn't resist the urge to swing the coil though, so to get it off my system late this afternoon I headed to a local site with my E-Trac. I was determined to come home with at least one silver coin, but the site was kind and allowed me to grab seven instead. :happydance01: There were other finds too, like several old wheat cents, a 1891 Indian Head cent, and other miscellaneous items. I took a photo of only the silver though. :grin:

The dimes are all old, dated 1870, 1891, 1901-O, 1912, 1920, 1925, and 1927.

Nice digs. That Canadian dime is sweet. It's getting harder to get out in the evenings with sunset coming so early now...

Nice little silver pile Angel. Did you take your BB gun out and try your aim on that Canadian? I believe today was just a test run for the weekend lol

You are smack dab in the middle of the zone!

Pulling those kinds of coins on a 'I have to scratch the itch' hunt is mind blowing.

Curious... do you get fooled in to digging much rusty iron still?

Great finds Angel. :clapping:

I have one. lol It's been many, many years since I've ventured out to any park while it is dark. I'm no longer as adventurous. lol

I was bummed at that hole on the dime, but it does have a story to tell. :yes: Now I'm thinking that I will be skunked this weekend. lol

Thanks, Joe. I'm not really having a problem with iron. I do dig an occasional rusty nail, but no more than I used to when I had used other machines, and in fact I dig less of them. :yes:

It's okay, I don't either. lol

I should have, eh. lol

The site I detected has yielded 55 silver coins this year, mostly from the late 1800's to early 1900's. Aside for the opportunity it offers for finding old coins, I head there to enjoy a few hours of quiet and relaxing time, since it isn't crowded like the typical park. :yes:
