Old Parks

[LabradorBob (Missouri)]

Found a park on Google Earth,looked it up on the internet
and found out it was 118 years old.
Went there and looked for about four hours.
Second coin i dug was a 1905 V Nickel.
I was excited to find something old for a change.
Seems the old nickels get passed up.
Found a little clad,and a lot of junk.
Happy hunting all.

Is that a free download of google earth?I use mapquest once in a while to find some parks.

Google Earth is a free download....I use it for detecting as well.

I like Google Maps. I can switch it to 'street view' and it's like driving down the street/road. Satellite view is good, too, for finding out of the way places and a place to park.

Cool finds! All I found today was a Schlitz can and nettles.
