I hunted 3 different locations today, two were new places I'd had never hunted before. The first place was a tiny park high on top of a hill in a residential area of the city. I was able to thoroughly hunt it all in about 2 hours. Total coins dug out were 28. A silver dime and 2 wheat cents were the highlights.

Spot number 2 was a strip of dirt and weeds next to a small park that produced 25 coins, one was a wheatie. I worked it for about one and a half hours going through it 3 times. ...It was disappointing...:icon_scratch:...It should have had some silver, it was old. It probably dated back to the 1930's

Location number 3 was a baseball field. A silver ring and 4 wheaties woild be the best items dug. .....That 56 Rosie I dug in the morning saved my day!

Nice finds. The ring is nice and probably weighs as much as the rosie. I hate the aluminum screw caps too. I have to dig them even though my iron audio pops and scratches...I am just afraid of missing something good. Congrats on the two silvers.

I have to say I am most impressed with your trash removal on this hunt. Well done my friend. I was beginning to think this sight was nothing but, a bunch of cherry pickers.:icon_salut:

Great job, as always! :icon_thumleft:

P.S. I know everyone calls them Potato bugs, but it's actually a Jerusalem cricket.
