2/19/11 Park Hunt - First Hunt of the Year and First Silver!!

[Pocket Spill]

Had not planned on going hunting this weekend but decided this morning to get out for a few hours. Went to a park that I had just hunted a few times at the end of last year. Was out for 3 hours and found a no date SLQ (D mint mark), a silver ring, a silver Jewish religious medallion and a 1940s Captain Midnight Badge. Also got 3 wheaties. Was great to get out and most of the frost was out of the ground at this location so digging was relatively easy.

Compared to the Captain Midnight Badge, that SLQ pales in comparison. . . WONDERFUL find!
