My best coin spill...

[REVIER]

All fairly shallow but spread around an 8" area, big busy signal because I was using the big DD coil.
Didn't care, something about that signal made me stop an maneuver the coil around the area and one by one I zeroed in on each one of these great coins.
Way cool...can't wait this beat this one someday.

Cool find,two war nickels in one hole. That was a lot to lose back then.

Thanks all!

Yes it was.

Finding silver dimes was never really hard for me but it took me years to find my first buff and war nickel.
Still more on the rarer side for both these targets so to find multiples in one hole is extra special for me.

Good hit on that silvery spill! I remember digging a Merc and war nickel that were stacked, another time two Wheats and a Buffalo nickel...and they sounded like pulltabs! Did the F70 blend any of the coins' signals?

Kinda, they were all shallow at 3" or less and spread around about an 8-10" area.
Using the big DD coil I hit most of them at once and got a jumpy signal from regular nickel 31-33 up to the 70's from several directions.
Combined nickels would have shown higher and those numbers flashed by also, the dime was at one end of this area, a buff at the other and the rest scattered around the middle.
The buff on the end was the first coin I could isolate using the wiggle and pull back method...then I was able to move closer to the middle and find one of the war nickels, then another war nickel then just using the Propointer I found the second buff with no date.
I hoped it would never end but I stood up and my detector says just one more coin at the end of this area and this one was just a solid single dime signal.
I hoped it was silver...and it was.

I have had plenty of other spills, lots of modern clad combinations with several coins and even a deeper spill with a 1915 wheat and 3 Indians...but nothing like this.

This was fun...I hope it happens again someday.

Great find, always check and recheck your hole, it pays big. Once in a park I dug a few Mercury dimes and left happy. I came back the next week and found a Mercury on top of the ground where I dug the week before. I always check now.
