Hi everyone!!! I spent the weekend here in the NOLA area so that I could get back to the park I had found the reale seated and several barbers. I got there early Saturday morning and started hunting. It was a slow start but it picked up and it turned out to be another great hunt. I have yet to find any silvers newer than the barbers. It is crazy because I am picking out wheaties on a regular basis. I guess someone must have done some serious cherry picking. I am glad to have the etrac. In this soil it is working like a dream. I hope you enjoy the vid. I just started doing these after Dave (American Coin Hunting) showed me how easy it was. Thanks for looking. TMAN...

A real nice spot you have there! Love those O mint marks. It should produce for quite a while. Keep posting.

Congrats on some great digs! :icon_thumright: I gotta get back over there before you find all the good stuff!

My hunt Sunday was less than stellar after all. The watch was plated. I was sooooo disapointed. I am gonna get back out there in a few weeks. I will let ya know when I am gonna hit it again. We also might want to hit those two parks you IMed me about. If they arent too trashy they might give up some goodies too. TMAN...
