My best coin day…EVER..

by on March 27, 2012

Here is a video of me digging a coin spill from the river with my Garrett AT Pro. In all, I have recovered 178 silver coins dating from 1837 and before from this site. Sorry about all of the "check it out"s in the video, but I was just a tad excited. Be sure to check out the end of the video if you get too bored to make it all the way through.
Video Rating: 4 / 5

There is no “best” metal detector. It’s like asking “what’s the best vehicle to drive?”. A F350 is very different and built for different purposes than a Prius. But you can plan on spending at least $700 for a decent metal detector.

I don’t sell my finds, but have them put away for now.

I found them at a river crossing. I figure someone on horseback or a wagon got swept over when the river was running high. They probably died or had to move on before the river went back down.

take a physic to the area after you have hunted it out and see what the impression is of the area and ask about the circumstances of the coins being lost or hidden.the cache or spill lends itself to many questions.thanks for sharing this video ,it was a amazing find of a lifetime.
