Barber Quarter, Dimes and Pool Hall Token

Well-known member
Finds are from the last couple of weekend hunts with my Minelab Etrac.
I pulled the Barber quarter yesterday at a Minnesota City Park that used to be the site of a turn of the century school. It was a deep target that I almost gave up on.
My pin pointer started to sound off when the hole was a little deeper than pin pointer length on this one so the quarter was pushing a foot deep.
I was happy to end the day on this coin as it was a miserable hunting day with high humidity, heat and no wind.
The barber dimes were pulled in 2 different South Dakota City Parks the weekend before and were about 7- 11 inches deep.
The 1960 track medal was in the same hole as that tiny kid's bracelet so it gave somewhat of a strange, chopped tone but I locked onto the higher tone of the medal and pulled that first.
The odd shaped brass token is an old pool hall token.
Thanks for looking everyone!

As always, incredible finds!!
 
Love all the coins facing LEFT....Takes a lot of hard work to dig a foot deep and pull treasures over 100 years old and keep the grounds as you found them.
Let alone the research and time. Add driving hours and .....well....you show why we do it every few weeks with your posts. I wish I had the health to hunt half as much as I used to but am happy for even a half hour of swinging time for now. Your finds always amaze me for the variety of finds.

Some pool hall and pub tokens bring some serious money.
When you have a detector that works and you are very proficient with it there is no reason to change (as most of the new stuff is just marketing.)
Where you using the stock loop?
Who Dat! :buds:
