Today's park hunt.

[jim tn]

Couple of my swinging buddies, Chris and Gerald, and I ventured into the mid town area and hunted an older city park. Ground here was bone dry and digging pretty tough. Fortunately, a good slug of the targets were near some trees and any grass damage will be minimal. We each dug pretty good numbers of clad and cents, but only 1 silver coin, a 50d. I got it, along with 3 rings. I dug the first ring pretty near right off. In fact, it might have been my first target dug. It is sterling & 10k g f. The next ring I recovered is the horseshoe ring marked 10k g f. (junker) The last 1 has Vic/Cindy on it and is marked 925. And yes, I dinged it. It had a bit of depth to it and I nailed it in the hard ground. Along the way I did manage a 57d wheat cent and a scout belt buckle, of any other consequence. I was swinging the F 75 LTD with the 5" dd coil and sen of 70-85, (depending on how near I was to some power lines) disc 7, 3h tones, de mode and g b of 69-74. We'll hit this spot again once we get some much need rain. HH jim tn

Oh sure your in my territory now. It sure looks like my kind of finds. There is a lot of junk jewelry out there. You also noticed why I have so many pennies? 62% of my finds. But still there is some good stuff out there waiting for you to dig it up. Jim headphones that fit on your ears and you can hear what is going on around you is advised. I hit those parks almost daily and it is good to stay alert. Good detecting Jim......Z

Three of us hunt together when spots could be a little dicey, Z. Yup, the horseshoe ring was in the penny range. The knife Celluforce is mine, not dug. Just use it occasionally for a prop. It looks like we have some rain coming, Mud, just doesn't sound like near as much as we need. Most going just west and north of us, but will take whatever we can get. 16.5" below norm for the year to date. Good luck at the beach Rob O Mighty. In the dry sand, just fire it up and dig all that beeps. HH jim tn
