Dave , my best silver coin spill was this one . my buddy was very shocked and envious when i kept pulling barbers out of the same hole :lol:.

Mine is a Copper spill, I got the hole thing including the brass top of the purse. Six coins all copper
oldest CT copper newest 1843 LC. It was a happy day.

My best coin spill.... two, 2 Reales stacked on top of each other 1754 and 1819

Dan, the coppers look like you coated them with clear coat. Rob, at least you are finding good stuff while MD'ng, and not working as a camera operator.:hystericallaugh:

 

[KCFindIt]

Mine is nothing more than finding 48 clad pennies at the fairground field, where the carnival rides are set up. My guess: someone dropped a roll of pennies and didn't bother picking them up. They were under the grass layer, but basically surface, and all were within a 1' diameter of a circle. (Yes, I even looked for the other 2!)

Yeah...but I don't think that was your best coin spill...I think it was those 7 coppers in one hole a few years ago...I can't remember exactly what they were...but I think you should repost it...I even heard about it from a guy you work with while I was out detecting one day

Thanks for reminding him Rob....I was about to do it :lol: All colonial coins...I think 6 of them stacked on top of each other. How quickly he forgets a spill like that. :shocked01:

I have yet to find an old spill, but like KCFindIt I found a good clad spill last year. After all was said and done I recovered 143 nickels and pennies. Who carries and spills that many coins? It wasn't a mother lode, more like a second cousin lode.

143 coins, of any denom, is a lot of digging. would have been fun, nonetheless.

My son's one and only hunt produced a spill of over 100 coins...we stopped pulling them out after a while, all clad. My best was three 1734 coppers. The middle one was in fantastic shape.

Here is my best coin spill, from 2009 from a small town lot we got permission for knocking on doors.

That's what happens when you get old.....:lol:

Then again...how could one forget 4 Fugios in one hole! And a state copper and a KG.....

1st was about 15-20 Wheaties in front of an old school, 2nd was about 1.50 in clad in a park.

I know most of you have machines that read numbers,but I`m still using my old faithful bounty hunter which gives me low and high tones.Last weekend I got an erratic tone of both,so if in doubt dig it out.At 5in.out came a clad nickel and a dime than rechecked the hole and there was a Kennedy half dollar.Just wondering what kind of numbers you would have read with your machines with a spill like that.

 

[tanacat]

I found a Washington, rosie and 2 wheats together... but I witnessed a friend find 18 silvers during a group hunt! Mostly mercs... it was amazing. I was so jealous LOL
