WTG!  I have noticed that a lot of the Portland parks may not be completly hunted out....but very slim pickings!  I am moving on to private property (with permision) to try and get old coins...A lot of detectors swinging on public land here in Portland.

Yes, I believe your right. Lots of people say they are all hunted out. I find it amazing at how crappy a deeper silver coin can sound in this soil around here. There's still stuff there. It's just not quite as easy as it once used to be.

I too, spend most my time out on private properties any more.
Here's a pic of a find from the same park just two weeks ago.

Neat find, even if it had no coins in it.
Great job.

Maybe the chainmail can be repaired. Very unique find!

Great finds, Leo. You're doing very good up there in Oregon.

Unfortunately it is the same everywhere nowadays.... I dont do public parks. Schools are a waste of time.

I know what you mean.  All I have got from public places in Portland in the last 13 trips out have been a total of 8 weaties...oldest is 1925. 

I got 2 today just from a 10' x 10' area that wasnt fenced at a tear down house.

I'm in Aloha, Oregon as well. I've spent a lot of time on a larger private property there in Forest Grove over the last couple of years.

Well, We need to hook up for a hunt then. You wern't the one that detected the burnt down 1800's house on Kinnaman and 185th were you?
