    Two Tot Lots and a Little Grass

    I bought an X-Terra 50 a month or two ago but hadn't had the chance to really try it out. It's rained here for the last two days and has turned cooler, (50'ish). That pretty much cleared the tot lots and local park. I spent about 3 hours with the "50" today and I really like it. Nothing old but...

Under the line there is a 7 in the middle and maybe a "1" in front of it. The third charactor looks like a "8" or...

    Not old-old but odd!

    Found this at an old abandoned railroad section house I hunted last week. It's lead with a feather design and some silver (wash or paint?)still on it. Any ideas? Orimental piece maybe?

    Quarter Acre

    Hit the park yesterday morning with my excel. All the normal places like the tot lots, soccer and pee wee football fields have been hit so hard it's slim pickins'. I decided to go to a lonely patch of grass on the far end of the park. It's separated from the main area by a drainage ditch and is...

    Multiple drops

    It pays to swing that coil back over the spot you just made a recovery from. Hit the park for a couple of hours this morning as soon as the temp got up to 20 degrees. The coins on the left were concentrated in an area no more that three inches in diameter. I was using a probe so I'd roll one out...

    Little change with a ring!

    Hit the park for a couple of hours this afternoon. Picked up a little clad, a little blue bobble thingy and a ring. The ring has cresent moons and stars on it. It's stamped STERLING on the inside with a $ sign and a "C" with a circle around it directly under sterling. I don't know anything about...

    Excel was smoken' this morning

    Clad Day

    Stopped by the park on the way home from selling some black walnuts. PeeWee football is in full swing on Saturday and Sunday. Picked up some fresh drops along the sidelines of the football field and some older drops around the play ground equipment. Got a couple of bonuses, "Chunky Cheeze" token...

    Excel-lent day for me!

    It's been a couple of weeks since I went to my favorite park playground. I didn't figure I would find much because the last time I went someone else had been there before me. It looked like a groundhog had been digging in the oak chips around all the palyground equipment. Lucky for me today...

    Alittle clad

    Ran over to the park early this morning and picked up a little clad in the oak chips around the play ground equipment. I guess the acid in the oak really did a job on everything except the pennies.

    Excel-lent morning

    Took my Excel to town this morning to hit a couple of the city parks. They don't allow digging so I took my coin probe. I did get a little clad to show but I sure hated to have to walk away from those deeper hits that were showing up in the high 20's and low 30's

    hoe-hoe

    I dug this old hoe head yesterday afternoon. It was about a foot deep, between an old log farm house and creek bottom. It's 7 inches wide and about 6 1/2 inches tall. It's got a odd shaped hole in the blade that appears to have been bunched. Any info on would be appreciated.
