Had a couple hours to spare today so I went to an old park I have had my eye on. Sure enough, the dirt seemed original and I was pulling wheat after wheat. 7 wheats in about an hour until it started pouring. Dates are '15, '20, '35, '36, '45, '47D, '53D. Also found my first Buffalo! Was sure I would never find one because I usually mask nickel but this was in the hole with a wheat. A 1919-S Cleaned it up pretty good but I needed to find out the date :dontknow: Anyways I only covered an area of about 50x50 ft, I'm excited to get back there

Happy Hunting

looks like a good spot ted.
 

Great hunting,
looks like you got a good spot there. Better to clean the buffalo and have that nice date than just have no date. Those wheats look in good shape... must have been good soil there.
 

Good spot you've found. Was there much trash?
It always makes your day when you find old coins.

Sweet spot to be sure! Go get the rest of them goodies and turn that disc down a notch!

It was great, there was hardly any trash at all and I found very little clad...I'm going to try to get back when the park dries out...there's gotta be some silver in there.
 

Congats! looks like a nice old park. can't wait to see what else you pull out of there. :dontknow:
 

At this rate things will dry out around Aug... WTG on the hunt.
 

Nice finds! I would hit that park again silver could be hiding under those wheats.
 

Yep, keep hitting that spot and the goods will come up. :thumbsup:
 

Nice old Lincoln's & sweet IH!!

You have a good spot :thumbsup:
 

Yep thats a great hunt indeed!!! :icon_pirat:
