I found a very productive spot in a park today!!

[Dan(NM)]

I took a day trip today, drove about an hour to go hunt a park that I've been to before. Took me a little while to finally hit a nice hot spot. The area was about 15 ft wide and 30 ft long. Every signal was either a deep wheat or a silver. As you can see my ratio of keepers to clad was extremely high today. I'm running the Equinox 800 in my cherry-picking mode, only digging anything from zinc's up. The barber quarter was an oddball, this park wasn't founded until 1925. I hunted for about six and a half hours.

Well done on the silvers and pile of wheats. Pretty amazing actually only 5 newer era coins among your pile of other goodies. But we all need an outing like that once in a while. Good going! HH jim tn

Looks like you got into an area that has been very lightly hunted in the past. I agree that the 1902 Barber Quarter is somewhat of an oddball. It's wear pattern suggests that it was lost pre 1925. You had a very nice "vintage" hunt.

Your excellent research paid off handsomely !!

Very nice hunt Dan! Speaking of Oddball coins, A few years ago I pulled a very worn barber quarter from the front a school that was built in 1942.
Some of those old coins were held on to for a very long time.

Great finds and research! Sometimes old dirt gets brought in as fill, I wonder if that's what happened with your Barber? In any case, it's a great score.
