    Easter silver trifecta

    Managed to get out today and pull a Barber quarter happydance02 , a few mercs, and a rosie. I've never gotten the dime trifecta, so this will have to be close enough, and we'll call it a silver trifecta.

    The Barber Q was 9 inches deep -- breaky, but good enough dig me signal. I was shocked to see that eagle staring up from the bottom of the hole , as this site usually only gives up dimes, and only 1940+. Read 10-46 on the E-Trac, I was expecting an SLQ or a copper.

    Sweet hunt Randy! All good coins, but that Barber quarter is especially so.

    Nice hit on the silver tri!!
    I don't think I've hit a dime tri either. Someday we will.
    But... the Barber quarter makes for a great day on any hunt. <:
    You are really on a silver roll Randy, keep it up.

    Re: Easter silver trifecta

    Silver on Easter That is just as good as finding silver on ....any other day lol Great hit on the deep Barber. I agree, there is something special about looking at the back of a Barber coin in the dirt Kinda takes you a bit to realize what you just found Great hunt again.
