This is my 90th silver coin from the same park. I'd really like to hit 100 but I've been seeing diminishing returns there lately. I snuck out a few days ago for a cool, overcast morning hunt but the overall heat and dry ground is what's been keeping me idle. This Roo has a circular scratch that is very centered on the coin, I'm thinking it may have been a failed attempt at a holed coin but why hole a Roosie? Elton, sorry I couldn't find something better to quench your thirst but I'll take the Roo.

I know what you mean as are chicago parks have been pounded for years by some of the best. That is why I find it hard to believe the 300-400 silver a year some newbees claim to be getting with the E-trac.
