Finds are from weekend hunts over the last 2 weekends. All finds were found at public sites with my Minelab Etrac.
The 1920 Walking Liberty is my 14th Silver Half Dollar of the year.
The 1910s Barber Half was pulled from a North Dakota city park a couple weeks ago. It was completely on edge in the hole and was giving me 01-45 numbers.
It was a big surprise to see that coin staring back at me. It has been a couple years since I pulled one as they don't come up often.
Toward the end of last week we got nailed with our first winter storm. Alot of The Dakotas and Minnesota were blanketed with snow.
I decided to head down to Iowa and hit some city parks and visited my brother while down there also.
The first day after the morning drive I was greeted with 50 mph winds so it wasn't a very pleasant day. Toward the end of the day, I finally got over a nice Indian signal. I pulled up a nice 1905 Indian.
I rechecked the hole and got another Indian penny range signal. To my surprise it was a 1907 barber dime setting on top of a 1891 V nickel. That was a nice old 3 coin pocket spill.
The next day I got an early start and was able to hit a few researched public sites. The 1920 Walker was in a very junky area. I was able to isolate a deep high tone in a tiny window in the garbled mess. It was about a 10 inch deep coin.
I also pulled a mercury dime, 1954 quarter, 1885 Indian and a couple buffalo nickels close by.
Thanks for taking a look!
