Had a chance today to hunt with two other members of the Lebanon County Metal Detecting Club at a very old church grove in Lancaster County, PA. Getting to the church grove was an adventure this morning as we still have many, many road closures still in place due to massive flooding in our state this week. Alternate routes were found and we all arrived safely. The park is 14 acres but well over 50% of that is currently covered by very thick growth of trees and brush.
I hunted for about 4 hours today and the targets were few and far between, but finding two Mercury Dimes made the drive worthwhile.

Today's finds included 2 clad quarters, 3 clad dimes, 4 memorials, 2 Wheats 1942 & 1954, one 1984 Lancaster County dog tag and a 1917 and 1918 Merc, both plain (or the mint marks have been worn off).
