Default baseball field finds

Spent couple hours at local park in the outfield grass of a little league baseball field. No silver but three of the pennies were wheaties. Case knife was 1" deep.

Good job!! I am hitting our old ball fields as soon as the ground thaws. I just hope I am the first one there, as I suspect it has not been searched in quite a few years. I found a few coins last Fall right as the ground started to freeze. Nothing like trying to dig in frozen sand.
