Chores are piling up, but had to get out for an hour at the park. Managed another Rosie, 1 Wheat, 1 clad penny, 1 nickel, 1 Empress Casino Token (about a half hour from me) and 1 burned up Matchbox. DSCF2010 3.jpg

The weekend hunt I ignored nickels and just went for the high tones. I took about 20 mins. today just looking for nickels. The nickel was a solid 13 and possibly slips to 12 for a bit. If it was 11,12,13, it was a pulltab. If it was 13,14, forget about it, pulltab.

1 hour is not long enough:laughing7:

Thanks for lookin'

Man just a tease of a hunt and you still got silver. An hour is better than not getting out at all though

I'm not sure if there closed or not. Been about 30 years since I was there last. My luck is better in the ground then the games!:laughing7:

The owners of the Empress Casino sold out to Hollywood Casino. Its still open, just under a different name. I'm only a ten minute drive from the place. Congrats on your finds digger.
