Small Town Park Silver & Indians!

Here are my finds from my last few park hunts this week. These parks have been hunted hard. I had a bit of luck and found some silver coins. The best one is a 1908D Barber dime in very nice condition. Also found four Indian Head cents (1883, 1890, 1893 & 189, two Mercs (1918D & 1919), two silver Rosies (1954 & 1960D) and a sterling silver heart pendant and two rings. I was hunting with the 10x12 sef butterfly coil on my E-trac. This coil did a great job hunting trashy sites. I'm still liking it a lot and use it much more than the stock Pro coil. Happy Hunting! Dan

Thanks for the comment, Diggincoinz! I use a Kodak Zi6 Pocket Video Camera. It's the best camera I've found for filming out in the field. One feature I really like is the macro lens. It takes nice, sharp close-ups of finds. In the past I used those cameras with the telescoping lenses. They don't have a very good macro mode and those external telescoping lenses are the first thing to go. After two of them stop working during the same summer, I got smart and bought the Kodak. It's lenses are internal. I used this camera all last year and this year. It's still working fine. I highly recommend the Zi6 to anyone who films hunts. :icon_thumleft:

Very nice finds there Dan,
The 10x12 sef butterfly coil seems to be working well for you. I guess it also helps to have the right old parks to hunt in. :icon_thumright:
