The small local park near me netted an 1891 seated dime on my first day there, and nothing else except one 50s wheat in over 80 hours there...
(clad and modern drops of course).
Went to another even smaller park in town in the area where activity began in the town. Knew there was a house on the site and a business or two in the 1870s. The dirt has been moved all around over the years.
No coins older than 1972. Nothing was coming up that was old at all and I was getting ready to go knock a door or two when an OLD freaking flat button with full shank pops up...well, can't leave now...![Grin :grin: :grin:](/images/smilies/grin.gif)
Nothing else of note came up really. Baseball cap or coin of some sort and a heart button. Pulled one wheat (1947) and the kiddie jewelry with the 4th kiddie ring of the year out of my neighbor's yard. This one has a ship sailing away on it. I don't get to hunt much during exterior painting season so I combine a few short hunts in my meager posts lately...![No :no: :no:](/images/smilies/no.gif)
$2.94 clad and a Costa Rican 100 Colones...
"BEST TREBLE" and "SUPERIOR FINISH" with two stars on the old flattie.
So it seems my parks give up one goodie and you're out! Picture of the seated from the other park in 2012 just for fun!
