Now that the crops are planted, I needed to scratch an itch.
It's been years since I have been to these 2 parks.

First park I dug a few deep targets. A couple if pennies. Less than a hour, got tired of flipping goose turds out of the way to dig.

Second park was down on the St Lawrence River.
I have detected this park many times with 4 other detectors.
Dug a lot of silver and other coins out of this small parkette.

I used the TEKKNA program this trip in the park, mainly on the strip along the bank above the beach.

Kind if sounded like an iron patch, but all the signals were 45-79. So I cherry picked everything above 80.

The oldest penny was 1920, 39, 40, 44, 45
The Wheats were 43, and 2-44s.
20 coins from this small grass strip.

The silver quarter 1943, 1942 dime
Kind of a wartime activity in this parkette.

Tried the beach for a Giggle. A piece of India jewelry, a dime, a eaten zinc penny.
This is the second piece of sand I have detected with the Deus 2.
Dug 31 tabs, dozen pieces of can slaw, of different degrees. No scoop, just my paw and the Leche.

What's interesting is the beach strip had a lot targets. So either it was just cherry picked or not too much detecting on the strip of sand.

I'm always amazed when a small little strip of land can hold so many coins. Looks like you had an enjoyable hunt. Well done!
 

That’s nice hunt. Had you hunted the strip with the coins before?

With 4 other detectors

Plus another guy hunted it with me, we were both using the Deus 1 detector

I have seen another person in the parkette as well detecting the grass and beach.

The beach area is 150ft long
This strip is 60ftx10ft(Photo)
The whole lawn area along the bank is 300ft long, bowl shaped.

I've got 10 silvers from this little strip.
Overall I have gotten a silver Half dollar, around 8 quarters, a couple dozen dimes. Mostly from the 300x10ft strip.
This quarter was half the Leche red handle down.
 

Excellent finds - well done ! :icon_thumleft:
 

Congratulations on your silver success and I'd love to see a good pic of the 1943 wheatie!
Thanks for sharing and being such a great part of this site, Pep.
