I have been hitting a park the last month or so....I will post more finds later, but I have to say something happened to me that usually happens to other people I rarely do old parks, I wasnt there 10 min..when a guy with fishing gear walks up to me and says how ya doing? find anything? and I said my usual "nothing much so far"...then he said "my dad and his friend cleaned this park out years ago they dont even bother coming here anymore.." I just smiled and said "I bet they found some good stuff", and went back to detecting I didnt walk 15ft and got a signal 89-91 vdi on my DFX at 2 in. So I dug and out came this gem, before yesterday ended I found a large amount of indian head pennies and other goodies The finds did not stop... I would be exagerating if I said every 3 in. was a find, but I swear every 2-4 ft. I found a goodie it was just crazy.... . I will post some pics of them later. I saw him again a few hours later i just smiled and waved...shook my head and kept walking

You found 30 indians in one trip? Holy cow!!!, I found 50 all last year, that's incredible!!

Absolutely killer hunt at a "cleaned out" park, I never listen to people when they say that

That's great! I can almost guarantee there is some Barbers or ever Seated silver in that park. Up that gain, go deep and slow.

Congrats and keep hitting that place!!!

When seeking permissions, and they tell me " Oh I have already had a couple guys come through. You wouldn't find anything", that's just a challenge to me! Nice old lock.
