Made it back out to the new park I found, I am begining to think its not seen much in the way of detectors the way the coins fly out of the ground.Of the one hundred acres I have only touched a sliver of it as its mostly wooded and still under snow and ice. I have only one small area thats been exposed to direct sun and its melted off enough to do some digging. These finds all came from Sunday afternoon and are as follows.....1952 Ben Franklin half dollar,1887 seated dime,1925 merc,1944 washington quarter, 1957 rosie,1946 rosie,1891 IH,1902 IH, 1900 IH, 1907 IH, a sterling saint christopher medalion, and a token for Green River Whiskey. The token is pretty cool and its from around the 1900 era. Hope you all enjoy these, I have to go pray for warm weather so I can explore the rest of this park!

If your finds are from only a small sliver of a 100 acre park and the finds continue at this rate through out the park you will need a wheel barrow to hold everything you are going to find. It's really great!! Keep us posted. love the stories it helps to keep me going. HHHH
