Best Silver Hunt!

[gibsondan]

Today I traveled to a big park located in the center of a city. I figured the park had to be as old as the city. When I got there the first thing I noticed was big, old trees with exposed gnarly roots. That usually means it's original ground. My first find was a Wheat cent. It was a good sign. Soon I began finding silver and other goodies. I ended up with 8 Mercury dimes, 12 Wheat cents, two tokens, newer coins and the usual garbage. November winds were blowing and it was chilly. But isn't it amazing how you don't notice the cold when you're digging silver?

Here's a video I made of the hunt:

Here are some pics:

I don't think that park has been hunted hard. That makes it pretty rare these days. I haven't covered the whole park yet. And there are more parks in that city.

Well done Dan, bet you where over the moon. It's great when your machine is working and worth the wait to get it repaired. Guess it paid off.

Yeah, Marchas45, that hunt really did make up for the time my detector quit working and had to be sent to Minelab. My best silver count for one hunt prior to this hunt was only two coins. So finding eight silver dimes during this hunt was a great surprise!
