Yesterday evening turned out to be a very active couple hours for me. That means I was doing more digging than detecting. The reason why is that when I got in the backyard of my friend's house, my detector started sounding off. I hardly had a chance to recover from digging one target to my detector sounding off on another target. Funny thing is all of these targets were in a same hole! One penny right behind the next with one nickel. All of them dating from the 30s to the 60s. None of them were older than the 60s. I could tell they had been there a long time because of the green hue the copper had on all of them and the green hue and impressions each coin made in the ground surrounding them. This hole ended up being the biggest coin spill I ever dug. After I finally got through with the coin spill, I couldn't go a few inches to a foot without running into other small coin spills with the occasional single coin. I think I ended up with a few other holes dug with 2-3 coins in them. They acted just like the big coin spill did by making the detector sound off again right after recovering a target. All together after it I got weary of digging, I had not moved beyond a 10x10 square foot area with the potential for even more targets in that small area. It was a very interesting and fun hunt with a lot of digging that payed off with a couple of small had fulls of rewards. 
The set of coins on the left is the big coin spill and the set on the right is the combined coins from all the other small spills.

I'm going to have to try to top it.
