Stormtrooper's March 1st Hunt = Silver
Well, I was able to get out for about 1 1/2 hours today and went to a park that has been around since 1941. I chose this park because it is smaller and tucked away in a neighborhood. Not a main park hit by all the Portland detectors. I parked my truck, got all set up and started swinging. The first target I got was the 1957-D Dime (2nd silver coin)
...I knew I was in the right place. However, because of the majority of the park was just mud, and I was sinking in, I only got to swing over about 1/100 of it. I will be back to that little honey spot when it drys up a little.
In the time I was there I got....
22 Pennies (1961 oldest)
8 Dimes (1957 oldest)
6 Nickels (1964 oldest)
2 Quarters (2000 oldest![:-\](https://www.treasurenet.com/smilies/undecided.gif "Undecided :-\")
)
I also found this Mazuma play money 25cent coin. It has US. Grant on it and the date 1822-1885, I do believe that is his date of birth-death. I do not know anything about these Mazuma coins, so someone let me know what era this coin is from.
