Well it was actually 2 days but it only lasted an hour each day.
I was in Illinois this past week and took my detector with me. I hunted a few parks and got a little clad then I found the best site I have ever detected in my short 9 month career metal detecting.
I only was able to detect for 1 hour Wednesday and 1 hour Thursday here is what I found:

3- Silver Quarters 1964, 1942, 1953
1- Merc Dime 1942
1- Buffalo 1937
1- war nickle 1944 S
6- Wheaties
1- Bus Token
1- St Christopher Medal
1- USAF lapel pin
1- Silver bracelet (belonged to Carol)
1- Silver ring
1- Silver ring with cheap stone
1- 14K gold plated wedding band
1- 1963 class ring
1- Spoon ring
1- part of silver bracelet
Misc clad, old watch, tool tag, etc


Here is my problem. I know there are tons more at this site but I will never get back there to hunt it. How do I divulge the location so other TreasureNet members can get the opportunity to clean this place out. Hint it is near Peoria.

By the way I may have to set my standards a little higher. My goal was to find a Merc, Buffalo and a Indian head penny. I have found all of these in the last month!!


Good luck and HH
