Fun hunt

[willie d]

Today was a fun hunt. The weather was perfect ! I went to a park that I hunted 2 weeks ago. I wanted to search the playground this time but, it was crawling with kids (go figure) Instead, I hunted around the basketball, baseball and soccer areas. A majority of the targets were coins, with not as much trash as I'm used to digging.

Straight from the pouch

Coins and tabs

153 coins--19 quarters, 18 dimes, 6 nickels and 110 pennies

American flag pin minus the post

Some sort of tag

Nice finds willie.

That's alot of garbage. You'd find treasure at my sites digging like that. Keep up the searches.

Believe it or not, this is the least amount of trash I've dug in months.

I wish I was into detecting back when I lived in PGH.

My aluminum goes into a bucket to go to the scrap yard.

That must be why scrap price's fell.Willy do you have a picture of the park where you found all that. I would like so see what it looks after you left because that is a lot of digging.

Looks like you had fun.

The little tag with the numbers came on a car key. That number would allow a dealer to cut a replacment if the original was lost. As it says, the owner was to record the number in a safe place and then get rid of the tag.

LOL, I have been flooding the market these last few months, sorry. I don't have pics of the park, but I can assure you there is no evidence I was there.
