I discovered this older baseball field on google maps and decided to give it a try. I noticed after my first dug coin that this field is composed of a light sandy loam soil that was very easy to dig in. I could dig down 6 inches in about 5 seconds. The coins were everywhere! I spent the next 7 hours without a break digging coin after coin. My total was 181 coins of which 50 were quarters! Two silver dimes form the 1940's & 50's would make a good day great! Adding up all the coins the total came to almost $21.00! After all that bending down I'm really exhausted!
