All Treasure Hunting
Went out today and dodged the rain clouds to hit 2 home-sites at a very old park. Hint one home-site that I have detected several times the past 2 years with some nice finds. I found a 1807 1 Reale and a 1865 2 Cent Piece here last year. This time I moved a few small fallen trees and turned up a very nice 1833 Capped Dime. I then decided to check out a new area that I have not detected before, next to a small pond. I found 3 Mercury Dimes next to a large flat rock. Might have been used for a picnic spot. Here are my finds today. Happy Hunting Everyone.
