a little silver

[McCDig]

Had a couple hour hunt late yesterday at a park in Baltimore, one that we used to take our sons to when we lived in the City.

I concentrated on the ball field and did recover 9 deep wheats. One of those wheats was resting against a 1926 mercury dime, a two-coin spill. The pennies are from the 40s and 50s, thus the wear on the dime.

An early find was this cross that is marked "SOLID COPPER" on the back.


My last deep target was a part of a silver earring. ​

Thanks Randy. A quiet park that is tucked away in NE Baltimore City, the ball field has overgrown in its disuse.

Thanks SD51! Yes, I had visited my folks in the afternoon and this spot is a short drive from their apt. and I hadn't been there for awhile. Never found much there before, some wheats and a silver ring a couple years back. It was a good time listening for faint high tones.
