Amazing when you pull that out in Oklahoma, 2 inches deep. I did similar at an old park here in the Tulsa area once. The park had been beat to death over the years but you still manage to find an occasional old coin. Crazy.
I live in front of an original
Park in OKC. You cannot believe the amount of sterling I find. Rings, bracelets, earrings and coins. You’d think the park has been hunted to oblivion. Most of the silver I pull out says sterling on it. So it’s been ther awhile.
