I met up with J and we headed to a park that was around in a 1875 map. Wasn't a big park but had history to it so we gave it a shot. About 20 minutes into the hunt my friend D calls and I said for him to meet us there - he had hunted this park before but didn't find anything. Before D got there J and I hunted an area close to a church across the street. So D arrived, chatted for a few then went back to detecting. Well about 15 minutes later I can see and hear D getting excited. He said he had just found a seated liberty dime. Both J and I missed it but D found it. So that gave us a little more incentive to do some serious hunting - but to no avail. At least someone found something good out of the park - tons of junk and little coins. Good for D. We then hunted another park with the same kind of history - this time nothing for all of us and we hit the local fire dept. and community center finding nothing. My haul for the day was about 10 coins - J not much better and D came up the big winner. Will post my terrific findings later, if I get out today I hopefully can add something good.
