i went to an old playground one evening when there was a light rain. wrapped the controls in plastic wrap and started looking around. i just knew that this place had been worked over but it hadn't. the play ground equipment is so old that no one goes there. started finding lots of junk and it seems that there might have been an old house there that burned. found lots of melted pieces of things about 4-6 inches down. dug up a few coins and came home. after cleaning i dicovered i had an indian head penny. wow. went back the next evening, still raining, and found another. figuring third time would be the charm, went back the next evening and found another one! they were all in different places and each time i did not discover what i had until i got home and was able to clean them. one is an 1896 and the other two are 1903.
