Today at the park again, 2 more wheats 1920P, 1946S, Chevy decal from a hub cap, brass plate, Brass buckle, possible Brass Kids gun part ? 4.18 In clad 11 Wheats in this park and no Silver, or Buffalo's think it's been cherry picked. But I'll keep trying as long as my machine beeps. Jeffersons got added by mistake they were '39 thru '61 gotten from Coin Roll hunting (Edit)

Seems that there is something going on in Watertown Parks was again talk to by the P.D. this time the report by the DPW that I was metal detecting in the park and that it was against the rules. Can't find the rule here, the Officer said maybe I should go to the Recreation Dept and ask them. I did and was told it is against the rules, when I asked for the specific rule he told me he'd have to look it up. He called back in an hour and said it's against the rules, I asked again for the specific rule and was told that he already spent too much time on this and he was busy. So much for public servants !

Clad count 2.16 and bottle caps, canslaw, you know regular junk.

That stinks about the parks Rick[emoji107]🏻. Did someone come up to you at the park while you were detecting and tell you it was against the rules?

No a cop came by said they had a complaint from the DPW that I was digging, he said that they said it wasn't allowed. He also knows a little about the hobby as he said "your doing it right" the plugs were pretty tight and not a mess. He told me to check with the Recreation Dept, So I did. They told me that metal detecting wasn't allowed. His reasoning was anything in the ground was now property of the town, also defacing the property. I asked for the specific law, bylaw, or regulation and was told he didn't have time for that. I was back at it today and I publicized it on our town facebook page and wasn't bothered. So we'll see what happens now. Got 2 silvers a 1953D Washington, a Sterling Charm, a bling Gold Earring, Wheatie, clip, and .76 in clad
