This was going to be the last hunt of the year for me, so, I decided to travel a place that has produced before. I was fortunate enough to start the hunt with some silver right from the start. First find was a 49 rosie followed by 2 wheats. I moved to a different spot and first hole produced a mini-wheat spill, 4 in the same hole. Not 10' from that spill, I hit a funky reading and the first coin that popped out was a buffalo, rechecked the hole and spied the 44 merc.

Total was:

1949 Rosie
1944 Merc
1937 Buff
9-Wheats

The weather was perfect for hunting, in the low 50's and overcast. The nice thing was the park was pretty much empty except for the occasional walker.
