It's been pretty dry up here so we drove to a town that has a big park with a river running through it allowing some moist ground near the river. I did pretty good there. 12 wheats including an "annie Oakley" wheat. someone shot a 22 bullet through it. Also got a 36 Buff, and a 57 silver Rosie. Also got $2.21 in clad and some misc.

Yesterday we had a club fellowship hunt at a private place with about a 20 acre parking lot that has been uses since the 40's. 17 members showed up. We dug a few hundred clad coins, around 30 wheats, and ten silvers. Many misc items came out as well. I decided that because of all the clad in the ground I was going to concentrate on quarters, deep silver, wheats, and nickels. I found 23 quarters with a total of $6.49 in clad. I got one wheat and a 51 nickel. several misc items including a victorian era suspender clip. Oh I also got my 3rd Fidget spinner Sure had a great time with friends. We also decided to put all the trash together to show the owner. This is a full sized tailgate on my friends truck. The owner was very pleased.

I'm always impressed with detectorists who pick up the trash along the way. It goes to show many of us are not reckless hole diggers just out to find relics & coins to make a profit. The landowner will greatly appreciate this habit and chances are good a repeat invitation will be granted to come back and detect. Plus you may just go back over the same area. This takes up an enormous amount of time if you're hitting on the same trash targets which should have been picked up in the first place.

Many kudos to folks do this. :icon_thumright:
