Yesterday I dug out 144 coins out of a newly discovered park. Three of the coins were silver. Today I returned and dug out another 104 coins! Six were wheat pennies, 1 silver ring, and 3 more silver coins! This is a park that I can't believe no one else has hunted much, it's tucked away and hidden. You don't have to swing your coil for long periods, you are digging something every 2 minutes! Lots of targets in the ground! Next weekend I'll be in Pennsylvania with my MD, so I'll be back at this hot spot in two weeks.

Nice finds. That band looks to be a heavy one!
 

Zinc cents are the perfect coin to represent the Fed--rotten from the inside out.
 

Congrats on the great find s

I dug up some Roman coins in England a few years ago that were in the ground for 1,800 years and they came out of the ground in much better shape than those darn zincs!
 

Very nice!, pound that place
 

grate job awesome finds see you when you get back from PA Ray
 

sounds like the perfect place for a newbie to go hog wild in! congrats on finding the place in the first place and on the finds themselves!
 

Very nice finds! Congrats!
 

Like that hot spot, nice finds..
 

Congrats on your great finds, especially your park!
 

I need to find a spot like that. Congrats on the finds.

sponge using smoke signals.
 

Sound like you found one of those dream parks. I hear stories from long time veteran MDers who tell of days back in the 70s when they would come home with a dozen silver coins in a morning hunt. I was talking with CarolinaTom on the phone last night and mentioned to him how cool it would be to travel back in time to 1965 with our Deus detectors and hit some schools and parks.
 

Yeah , like treblehunter mentioned the real find here is any place that is not pounded to death already . I wonder if this one has been hit at all before you got there . Dream Site !

Sounds Cool , I would Also take about $500 in Vintage 1960's Bills and buy certain items like Baseball Cards , Comic Books & other items that were Cheap then And costly now. Maybe even some Gold if the price is right.

Could I only go back once?
 

Great Finds

Love the design on that Silver Ring.:thumbsup:
