Finds from city park/swimming pool

[ramairnut]

Spent a couple hours with the X70 in the nice weather today. The park I am hunting is huge. All this came out of an area I hunted that is only 30yds long and 20ft wide. I really scoured this area that I marked off. Too bad that winter is coming.I guess it will give me something to look forward to next spring. I was using the stock coil today. I was hitting nickels at 4-5 inches and some quarters at 6 inches with the sensitivity at 17. The oldest coin was a 1964 nickel.Total count was 13 qtrs, 11 dimes, 13 nickels, 6 memorials, an old pocket knife and a valve stem cap that was 7 inches down! No silver yet but I have a good feeling that there will be.

Congrat's on the nice clad totals.

with the clad being down a good 6" that means the silver coins will be down a good 8" or more. Try to turn up your sen. to 20 if you can. That will help to pick up the deeper coins and swing your coil real slow.

The park has only been around since 1974. I have found a bunch of 1965 qrtrs and dimes I will go back over the area with the sensitivity turned up. The only reason I didn't run the sensitivity higher was because I didn't want it to work against me since the ground seems to have moderate/high mineralization.I hope you are right about the silver being deeper. This will give me something more to look forward to.
