2nd time at a park...proving to be a productive one

[Nate in Ohio]

Hey again guys, we were able to land a solid hunt today for a few hours. We explored a few spots that looked interesting enough to try and didn’t really get anything (coin-wise) that made the site a high priority to get back to. So we ended up at a park that we had been to for the first time a few weeks ago where Mirage found a silver dime. Mirage started off finding some stuff and it wasn’t until about 2 hours or more into the hunt that I found a spill of a buffalo (1925) and a few wheats. I had just stepped into this area and figured that there had to be a silver around and not 15 minutes later I got the 1940 quarter in nice shape. Then I checked around a huge tree nearby and pulled a 1946 dime out. This day was kind of a treat for us, it’s pretty tough to pull out multiple silver from lots of parks around here…of course the big thing about this site was that it was practically new territory for us unlike our other usual spots. This one for sure has more to give.

(The dime: no, I'm not always this messy, there was basically no grass and the dirt kinda crumbled and would set back into place 8) )

The US thing is kinda interesting. Part of the rifle broke off (not from my excavations). And those hearts are silver; I found those on a quick hunt a few days ago.

This was also found a few days ago...when you get the moisture on the coin and hold it just right, this baby looks SWEET.

Have a good one guys, HH!

Yeah, sleep in, metal detect most of the day and then go meet up with the guys for Monday Night Football! I don't remember college that way.

Hey after a week like I had this past week, with studying calc for about 4 straight hours two nights in a row to get an A on the test on Friday along with plenty of other stuff, I deserved a little party action...and that party action could be a lot worse than just Monday night football!

Michiganne, that's what the medal says. I'll prolly see if I can find anything about that and/or the other square item with writing on the inside; it's hard to read. Thanks for the comments yall.
