This past Saturday the temps were in the mid 30's and the 6'' of snow from the previous week had melted. So I ventured to the spot where I found the 5 silvers at a few weeks before. The first silver was obvious...12-46 at 6-7 inches and it was the 1936 merc. Then I found a Rosie basically in one of my plugs. I was happy with the 2 silvers so I decided to go to another older spot that I know holds some old coins since the place is 160 years old. I decided to dig anything deep. I came across a 12-39 signal not terribly deep but I dug anyway and out came a 1914D Barber Dime! Very surprised to see it but there was some trash in the hole that mixed the signal up a bit. I was very pleased to get a trifecta!

Also managed another merc, war nik, 1920 Buff, and a 1896 indian.

It was a fantastic end to 2017!

Thanks for looking - Jared

Congrats on the trifecta, great way to end the year! Still haven't had one of those. I've had the merc and barber but the newer rosie always eluded me, go figure. :lol: Than IH looks nice and clean, and that Dick Tracy badge is pretty cool. Been hoping for at least one more hunt this year too, but got up this morning to see the temp at -4 and said "nope!" and went back to bed.
