Season ended in style????

[Brian in MA]

Well, if today was my last time out this year, I'm fine with that because I had a great day.

I abandoned the hunt for Colonial finds and decided to do some plain old coin-shooting because I felt like finding a lot of targets and I knew I would need to dig a lot just to stay warm. So, off to one of my favorite parks. This park has been producing silver for years. It never seems to end !!! Today was no exception!!!

I dug 7 dimes (6 mercs and 1 Barber) and a Washington quarter. Also, got a 1873 IH and 20 early wheats.... The IH had a piece of iron literally stuck to it. I had to pry it off of the coin. I think I know how this one was missed all these years !!!

These were all found in a small area that I (and many others) have pounded for years... I can't explain it. I think the EXII was on steroids today...

Given the forecast, I'm not very optimistic that I'll get back out this year. But, I know where I'll be going come spring...

Here are some pics... Thanks for looking.
