Beautiful day, up and out early, anticipating my large large tot lot hunt and that long sought after elusive gold! Crossing the grass there was the normal clad and a little trash. Once in the wood chip filled tot lot, swinging and walking, dead silence! What? Check the detector, yep it's on and working! I realized after several swings and not even trash that this tot lot had been detected.

I searched it anyhow just to see what I could find. Found some clad just a little trash and at the far end a folded $5 bill just laying there! Told the man upstairs "thank you, and I won't whine" .
Search part of the field too, more clad.

Went back to another school to search the sports field but it was locked, so I searched the front of the school. A guy in a blue pick up stops to talk, he detects too..."tot lots and the school sports fields"! Ah ha! We had an interesting conversation. I did not tell him about the tot lot, or the five, or the fact that he is leaving a lot of nickels! If you're out there dude, you may want to dig the nickels too! image.webp
The earring & Alex & Ani thing are junk. I had a good day! GL. &. HH to all!

Thanks for the kind words guys!

Ogre1190- the "five" dollar setting is just below the "ten". :laughing7: (Go big go with the $100!)

LOL that's way Kool msbeep , so deserving after all that white stuff you had to live with this past winter ..... daWg
 
I could only wish those tot lots we have been hunting have been that fruitful.
 
Thanks CMD! It was frustrating not being able to get out this winter, lots of time to google new places to try later.

Thrifty- It may have been the "older" tots who dropped the five along with the dice! Just lucky timing, I got there very early Sunday morning, before anyone else.
 
I wish I could find cash like that!
 
Nice haul there Msbeepbeep ! :occasion14:
 
When you are doing tot lots be sure to detect a couple of feet over the boundary where sand/chips meets grass. This has always been a great area for me, lots of coins and rings. I think because tot lot detectorists don't always bring diggers, and field guys don't get this close to the play areas.
 
NPDigger7- just keep your eyes open it's out there.

Thank you CRM!

Thanks Susan, I do check the perimeter. It was hunted before, I met the guy later that hunted it, he left a bunch of nickels, lol!

Hey, if he is leaving you nickels, he is leaving you gold rings too..
 
That's why I'm laughing. :laughing7:
 
Is that a smashed penny? you have been doing allot of digging girl, good job. I like seeing all those nickels, sooner or later, keep digging Beeps!
 
my first gold item was found at a kiddie type baseball field * was hitting coins and got a foil signal on my Ace 250 ..since I was hitting coins near it I thought what the heck --clear that gum wrapper away == it away might be masking a coin ... turned out to be a very thin yellow gold 10 K mexico made kids ring ..it was marked and real just thinner that heck...
 
Thanks Treb! That is an aquarium token with a shark on it.

Ivan salis- I dig all signals in a tot lot, I just gave everybody a break and didn't post my pile of trash...this time! :laughing7:
I found another tot lot for this Sunday morning! Yeah! And a large multiple sports field. So hopes are high!
