Hello all!

Its been raining all week here... but today the clouds broke for a few hours... so at 5pm... I headed back to the site that yielded me the Love Token...

It did not take me long to get a 6-7 signal that yielded my first keeper...

1889 Indian Head Penny (IH #26 for 2011)

20 minutes later working I approached a tree and got a 12/45 @ 3 and alomost did not dig this shallow dime signal...

Then I saw... 1916... and SLOOOOOOOOOWLY turned it over.... No D :-(

1916 Mercury Dime

Just a few minutes later and 5 foot away... I got a bouncy conductive signal of 42 to 46 @ 8-10...

1917 Matron Head Large Cent (Copper #9 for 2011)

30 minutes with no keepers... then this thin Baber wanted some fresh air... I knew this 12/45 @ 6-7 was silver forsho!

1903 O Barber Dime

Last item of note was this Cuff Link...

Great finds! I love that large cent, nice readable date on an early coin. Good variety of finds there: LC, IH, Barber and a Merc.

I also think the design on that cufflink is spectacular. It looks really old. I would be tempted to do some research to try and find out more about it.

Thanks for sharing your terrific finds, they provide great motivation! thumbsup01

That;s why I dig every dime and quarter signal, no matter the depth. It amazes me that you can find a silver dime at 1 inch and a memorial at 7 inches at the same site. You just never know.

That site is proving to be VERY productive. Congrats on a great hunt and a great site!

Nice group of coins and an odd looking cufflink for sure. :thinkingabout:
