My last hunt was a couple of weeks ago and after the ground frost disappeared I had a chance to get out to a 1930’s park which I’ve hunted quite a bit during the past 8 years. When I arrived, I noticed immediately that most of the dense brush that had been surrounding this park had been cut and cleared. This opened up a lot of new ground that I had never detected before so that’s where I spent my time hunting.

It was great to be able to swing my Equinox over these recently cleared areas for the first time but a time consuming job to dig those targets that were locked within networks of underground roots. I was happy with what I recovered in these cleared out areas and the next time I return, I’ll be sure to bring the pocket saw that I left sitting in the garage LOL.

Thanks for looking and happy hunting!

Well done on getting some great results from the cut back in the park area.
I had a similar thing many years ago they cut back about 4-6 ft of overgrowth along the lawn edge.
Had a few good hunts after that for earlier pennies and silver dimes.

The ring looks like a Balinese style, manufactured on the island of Bali.
The 3 ball/beads and the cabling is typical of their design.
The stone is an Amethyst
