It was hot today again. Promised my wife I would not go hunt unless it was below 100 degrees. On the way home from church it was 101 and got up by 2 pm to 103. Then came some thunder! Several rounds of it and we finally got a bit of rain. By 4 pm it was down to 90 so told my wife I was going to the local park. A small park in the country near the firehouse close to where I live...about 1 mile from home.
Anywho I got there and in an hour searching and dirt digging...I had recovered 8 coins (I hoped! They were so dirty could not tell for certain if they were coins or tokens). Got them to the house and decided to take a couple of pictures ...kinda a before and after using a dremel wheel on them.
Total was only 77 cents but at least I got a hunt in and it was fun. I did dig a crushed aluminum can from 6 inches, several poptops and some aluminium coke screw caps and one screw beer cap with the glass neck of the bottle still on it! By the time I got home my truck thermometer showed 83 so I am hoping for a nice cool morning tomorrow for my before work hunt!
