Got up and out at 6:30 this morning and headed to a small park that I have hit all summer.
Pickens are getting slim.
Managed 6 wheats and a bunch of clad after about an hour.
Was getting frustrated after an hour and was ready to call it a day when on the way
to the car I managed to get a 1964 Quarter.(silver #50 for the year ) That peeked my interest and and stuck around for a bit more
with nothing to show for it.
Headed home and saw a park to hunt. Hit it for about 45 minutes with only 1 wheat and a bunch of Clad.
At least I got something for my effort....

Felt like I was south of I 80.....

Yeah, that AND there was frost on my coil this morning even after sunrise! So you also felt how cold it was this morning I'm sure! But all I got was clad, clad, clad and wheaties.

Good hunting Bob!

Next time wait for daylight!

Not that I'm anxious for snow by any means - far from it!

Congratz on the finds.

When goodies are being posted this winter you will get the
itch to maybe go dig through some snow. Grats on #50 BOB.

I think it took Mark all of a minute or two to pop that first LC of his there! I think I got the only Indian Head at the site and it still had paint on it!
