Saturday's Hunt with Buddies

Went out yesterday with my buddies t-bucket and TC4. I took them to a old park that I have found a few silvers from early 1900's. I first started off hunting the old sidewalk and in no time ended up with 3 mercs. I then decided to hit a small wooded area that I thought would be a great place for someone to camp. I found a old chest lock that was broken and within 5 feet I hit a nice silver tone. Boy was I surprised to see a 1895-o Barber Quarter pop out. T-Bucket found a 1854 Seated Dime in fine shape, but a little black and a Merury Dime. Sorry to say TC4 did not find anything, but he did say he really enjoyed the beautiful views of the old park. We will be going back again soon. Thanks for looking. HH

Maybe so. Years ago people would pack up and come here to camp all summer. Probably buried caches. Large park of about 400 acres.
