V3i nets more silver, Indians

[midas]

Spent 4 hours with the V3i at at local park. Temps were in the low 40's with a wind up to 20 mph. I wish the coppers would come out of the ground better. But, in the condition they do, it's into the junk bucket for them. Total for the hunt was 3 Indians, 1 Shield Nickel, 1 Buffalo, 1892 Barber Dime, and a 1941 Merc - looking like the day it was minted. And the usual clad.

It's always exciting to find a shield nickel. eace: Too bad the soil at that site did a number on the one you found. :huh: Still, that was a sweet hunt, with one nice old silver and a great looking mercury dime. thumbsup01

Very nice John That merc is in beautiful condition, but I really like the barber :grin:

You're right; the copper sure comes out looking nasty. You need to dig in the Midwest for awhile, you would love how the coppers look coming out of the ground

Better you get them coppers now before there isn't anything left to look at lol Nice batch of coins and the the silver still comes out sweet looking :beerbuddy:

Great stuff.

Silver always makes the hunt worthwhile, but the IH's, Buffalo and especially the Shield top it off as a great hunt. eace:

The V3 must be quite the nice machine to pull that kind of stuff from a park.

Congrats.
