Last woods hunt

Monday I hunted in a area where I have found many older coins - there is a wooded area where I started first.  Again I didn't find any coins but did come across a silver spoon.  My first silver in awhile.  Then I went back to my former hot spot finding only clad.  My lunch hunts have stopped since changing my work hours and it looks like I will back to hunting just weekends.

SLOW WEEKEND

With the frost in the mornings -   and with daylight coming later the bugs are now gone and getting started  is now around mid morning where before I could get out very early.   Saturday I got a late start and headed to a school where I've had luck with silver and wheat pennies - I wanted to try the surrounding woods since the ground was like a lake with the 2 days of rain.  Nothing in the woods so I hit some high ground by the school.  Still very wet I managed to find 61 cents.  It was like walking on a sponge.  Hopefully it will be better to hunt in a few weeks.

Sunday I hit a new park.  Like the school the ground was full of puddles and very wet.  I tried a bit around a ball field and found a buck 10 - 3 quarters in the same hole - then ventured into the woods.  I found a path and hunted along it finding a dime and nothing else.   Again this will be a good spot once it dries up a bit.
