    No wonder New York is sinking, you're taking all the metal out of the ground. If you feel your feet getting wet, run. Congrats!

    (3 coins of the same denomination but from a different series)

    If I would of found a Barber Dime like I detected last week it would of been a Quadfecta :wideyed:

    Those are usually found in small towns with wooded areas, older houses/structures, ship ports and crop fields. Upstate NY, Long Island etc.

    I don't own a car to get to those places :arghh:
