I have heard about the ordnance found on the golf course. The golf course would be a great spot to hunt, but you can't hunt it. Believe me there are many old coins still in the park. Now would be a good time because of the ice storms and many trees down. Surely some old trees were removed in the park, maybe some old bushes, around the bases of these bushes and trees you may be lucky and find coins. I have hunted the woods. The woods and the area behind the art museum used to be full of homo's, there were mattresses and couches in the woods. Still to this day if you ride some of those streets you will see men sitting in their cars, I wonder why? If you really want to find coins just cruise the streets of St. Louis. The city is in its death throes. Everywhere there are vacant homes. For the most part you won't be bothered, so long as you are careful. Go the the areas that are being fixed up, not the areas that are in decline. The areas being fixed up are usually black, but those people are trying to fix up the neighborhoods and don't usually let thugs gain a foothold. Try down around Hyde Park. Freeman Bosley lives right across from the park. He is probably the most prominant black man in the city, that area is pretty safe. I have been there a number of times. No one will bother you. If you see trouble, get out of there.
