It's Just an Old Baseball Field...But it Keeps on Giving!

The amazing basball field I've been hunting the last 8 weeks just keeps on giving. Total wheat pennies from this filed now stands at 81! Total silver coins have now reached 17! After all the pounding I still dug out 2 more silver dimes and 6 more wheaties! A very ornate Star of David pendant covered with marcasite stones was dug up too! This weekend I'm going back for the first time with a larger coil. My 8 inch coil will give way to my big 10 incher. I'll keep everone posted on how it works out.

Nice finds. I had an old baseball field like that in Albuquerque that gave up several hundred silver coins before it finally got paved over.

Congrats Luke. That's a pretty good ratio of nickels to other coins. Very nice silver pendant and dimes. You've had a very good year and still have 2 1/2 months to go!

You have found a virgin site, congrats. Clean that place out. Dig all mid tones. All of them. After you get the easy stuff out, put a deeper coil on and take off the rest. Once again, congrats on finding a virgin site.
