Morning at the Park

January 29. 2011

4:30 came quickly, I jumped out of bed and threw my clothes and boots on. I had planned to visit a park I discovered six months before. I had taken my metal detector there and spent an hour or so without much focus and found a few coins ranging from surface to five inches down. Most of the stuff I found buried was from the '70's. So I figured that this park had not been searched and it was now mine! I decided I wouldn't go there often, I don't want to draw attention. So it had been about six months, and it was time to hit it hard. I spent six hours there on Saturday morning and pulled 73 coins out equalling about $3.48 in clad, a kids electroplated gold ring severely bent from a commercial lawn mower, a hot wheels car to add to my growing collection, and a cheap silver necklace that a young girl might wear. I will provide pics soon of this find. It was a great day! Boy am I sore from all the bending down. :) I will be going back soon, I have a lot of work ahead of me!
