I got up this morning and decided to head back to Indiana so I could visit a little with my family. Well... My family didn't think I was getting there till later that evening.. That's because I had BIG plans on heading back to some of my all time favorite old beat up parks for some serious digging 
I never expect to leave with too much when I visit these places because of the amount of activity I had spent there, as well as everyone else and there brother! I new there were still old coins hiding down DEEP! Believe it or not.. I was right 
The first spot I hit is a very interesting place.. It sits down in a very low area, the coins there do nothing but sink. You really got to go slow and trust your ears in this place. Right away on my first hole I hit silver. I believe it to be a 1920 Merc.. She is pretty worn.. I fumbled around for a few hours longer chasing all kinds of iffy hits. Was able to snag a few wheats from there as well.. Unfortunately with the ground being soaking wet at all times.. 99% of the wheats and Indians you find there are toasted
I heading back into Richmond to visit my favorite park in the world! People claim this place is hunted out, and on some days I would like to agree.. But for good reason I always find myself going back. I went to an area that has always produced some keepers. As soon as I got out of the car I hit a 9 inch wheat... Covered the hole took two steps and hit another so far this was looking pretty good.. I headed on out swinging very slow and listening.. I came across a very interesting hit. Almost sounded like an Indian, but a little odd.. I knew it was deep tho.. So I dug down.. dug some more, and when I checked with the probe it SCREAMED.. I located exactly where the target was and took one last scoop of dirt out.. When I did a little silver coin showed its self. I was shocked to see it was a 1898 Barber Dime 
I rechecked the hole and discovered what was giving the odd signal.. There was a large flattened piece of lead hiding down with the dime giving a low grunt signal.. Sounded just below what a nickel would.. I guess that mixed with the silver dime was what gave the medium Indian sounding signal. I fumbled around that spot a little more before I had to go visit with the family.. I was able to snag a 1900 Indian plus a neat little ring with a Deer in the center.. The ring said Junior Fire Marshal across the top.. I looked it up on line.. I guess it's from the 1950's..
Well guys I am wore out!!!!! Time for me to call it a night! I appreciate everyones comments and I wish you all the best of luck!!!1
KEEP ON KEEPIN ON!!!!!!!!!!
