Fantastic Day For A Hunt!
Got out to a Chicago park today and met up with L4S, Etrac007, Skinny Puppy, and ROTTNR. It was nice meeting both of you guys(SP and ROTTNR).
The day started dark and earlier. The sun was just starting to rise as we got there. The Mems where is full force ringing up anywhere from dimes to quarters and they were coming in deep too. First silver for the day was the 1937D Washington followed by the 1940D Merc. Just before Jon and I broke for lunch, I managed to sweep up the 1900 IH and then another Washington(1944).
After treating ourselves to a footlong and a bag a chips, we got back to swingin' in another section of the park for about an hour or so before we had to leave. Managed to sack another 15-20 Mems( ), a few dimes, and didn't forget to grab good old Roosie on the way back to the car.
What a fantastic day to hunt. It was actually warm enough to strip down to my T-shirt to work on the farmer tan. Here are my finds.
HH and enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Tell me about it. I would say about 80% of the Mems where anywhere from 5-8" deep!

Thanks, Joe.
It would be nice if a few more seated popped up this year instead. I feel left out of this years seated club.
