Sat went with Dan,Jim(mango ave) & todd to look for a couple cellar holes.only found one and we didn't fare too well.
Sunday we felt had to redeem ourselves and redeem ourselves we did.
we told Dan to meet us at a local school at 6am.we arrived at 6:28 cuz we are always late:hystericallaugh:
anyways we headed back down into a couple sites me & todd had found and have done well at in the past.Issac had a hell of a day one time he came up here with his dad.
so we get to 1st site and in no time Dan yells Copper! not long after Todd follows with a yell Copper!
i'm thinkin ok it's my turn next :crossfingers:
after pulling a ton of old style beaver tail pulltabs in the area I get a weird reading,dig down 4 inches and a flying eagle comes out.i walked over to show Dan & Todd.get back to the hole swing another signal,a trime sweet! stand up swing still another signal.another trime pops out.about a foot to the left a 3rd pops out.1851,53 & 56 and the 1857 Flying Eagle spill.pretty cool
ended up down the road to the artillery button site as we have labeled it. i scored a draped bust LC and on the way out with sun setting i nabbed a shield nickel.
W as a great hunt,we all did well which makes for a nice ride home.
hope you all have a happy & blessed thanksgiving!

What a day ... I mean honestly who digs up three trimes in one day :dontknow: :lol: hey where did you score the shield nickle ??

another great Day Dave and we had a beautiful day for it too!
 
Incredible! Wow, you found three of my bucket list coins in one hunt, Dave! I am very happy for you but it makes me want to cry. :crying01: :lol:

So many nice coins, buttons and relics! The Trime Trifecta is mind blowing! I've never seen a trime spill before, ever! And there was a Flying Eagle Cent with them as well. AMAZING!

:perfect10:
 
Wow Dave. You were looking for a redemption and you got it. Three trimes and a flying eagle? I'd like to find that. Now I know why you got the beaver tail pull tabs while looking for trimes based on what Isaac told me. I was shocked at the place we were at, that any pull tabs came up. And guess you couldn't leave from the button site without any buttons.
 
Wowowow Dave!!! Just goes to show ya we can't get it all the first (or second) time! :) That trime/FE spill is one for the record books... I've never seen more than one trime come from one hole! Congrats on a great day with great people :thumbsup02: Hope we can hunt all again come Christmas time... HH

By the way, was the site where it was over grown with ferns with the blue plastic bag ontop of the root cellar the one you found the spill? :envious:

Great hunt Partner! That Fatty sure looks like a Shield Nickle to me:poke:. I am happy that the three of us all took home some nice keepers
 
Holy Crap what a spill a "bucket list spill" of epic proportions HUGE :congrats: to you sir....
LOVE the Shield nickel and the LC Great Hunt :clapping:
 
I agree with all the comments above. 3 Trimes. Absolutely mind blowing. I doubt that will ever happen again, FOR ANYBODY.
oh yeah, the rest of the finds are great as well. :perfect10:
 
Triple trimes.....WOW. I guess that if anybody could do it would be you. Every time that I look at the photos of them all I can do is smile...:thumbsup02: A FE plus a shield nickel and a Draped bust LC and a ton of buttons....:envious: :perfect10:

Biggest congrats on your hunt
 
Awesome bunch of finds :thumbsup02: Amazing you found three trimes in one hunt, I've only found two of the silver ones in 25 years of hunting, I have gotten one three cent nickel.
 
:shocked03: I don't recall ever seeing ever seeing a triple trime drop posted anywhere. Very cool :thumbsup01: Great hunt !
 
Well what can one say, even my thesaurus does not have enough superlatives to describe the hunt you had, I guess the best I can say is that you deserve such finds, you guys work hard for them and they just don't jump in your pouch. Congratulations and thanks so much for showing such wonderful things and yes Happy Thanksgiving to you to my friend! :thumbsup01:
