Hunted out park yields another 1800s coin

[hatpin]

After work today, I hit the local park with the Vaquero for about an hour. I walked along the overgrown edge, its very viney and 99 percent of it you cant get a detector in. Whenever Id find an opening Id stick the coil in or walk in if it was large enough. One of the areas I was able to walk into I got a coin signal. I was thinking silver dime all the way. About two inched down was an 1899 s Barber dime. Only found two coins , the other a memorial copper penny.

I had the machine set on minimum disc , threshold on the last o of tesoro. I balanced it on the middle frequency then switched it to the lower one.

Good find hatpin, those silver dimes give a distinct sound from the vaquero.
