QUICK HUNT AT LOCAL PARK

I did a quick hunt at a park where I've had luck with rings but only came away with some clad this morning.  I'm on vacation so I got to take advantage of the cool mornings before the heat comes in the afternoon.   My take today was .$46 cents.

SUNDAY HUNT

Sunday morning I tried a new area - a ball field behind a school that is now a senior citizen home.  The school was built back in the 20's so I was hoping for some nice finds.  But as I did my thing all I found was clad.  I would like to hunt the ground next to the building but will have to seek permission.  I did find just over a buck and some canadian pennies.

SATURDAY HUNT AT OLD PLACES


I hit a school early in the morning where I've had luck with silver and wheat pennies.  Today nothing and I had to quit because of the thunder then the rain.   After the rain I went to a park where I've had similar luck and again nothing - I was lucky to find coins.  So I will give it another try today - hopefully a new area.
