2 HR PARK HUNT

No silver or wheat today but did have a nice pocket spill find.  There was 19 coins in one hole - all dimes and nickels - not bad. My oldest coin was a 1954 nickel.   My clad take today was 7-q, 15-d, 10-n and 8 pennies.  It is also the most nickels I've found in one day.  The total was $3.83 - 40 coins.  The next couple of days are supposed to be nice so I hope to get out and try some new areas.

HI HO SILVER AGAIN

Went for a short hunt back to the park where I had found my last silver quarter last week.  I got lucky again today and found another quarter 1958-d.  This one was about 5-6 inches down - #12 for the year.  I was digging dimes and pennies about 6-8 inches down - not many coins in the plug.  My clad take was $2.55 - 8-q, 5-d and 5 pennies - 18 coins.

BEST WHEAT DAY

Well today I had my best wheat day finding 6 pennies.  I hit a school on the East side and Joe met up with me there.  Found 3 wheats at this school - a lot of junk - it was hard to hunt.  Then Joe suggested another school and I found 3 more wheats there  - 1929, 1945(2), 1956, 1958 and a 1958-d.  Also found $3.16 in clad - 5-q, 16,d 1-n and 26 pennies for 48 coins.   Joe had about 5 bucks in clad.

PARK HUNT YIELDS WHEAT BUT NO SILVER

I met up with Joe this morning and we went to a park where he had found some old wheat pennies and an Indian penny.  Joe didn't have any luck today just finding clad and I found a wheat  1921.  I also found clad  $2.72  7-q, 9-d, and 7 pennies 23 coins.   There was a lot of junk in this park - it was hard to get a reading with the detectors because of all the pull tabs, bottle caps etc.  But it's a city park - too many parties.

THE RAIN IS BACK

Didn't get a chance to hunt yesterday as I got called into work and the rain has come back.  It's supposed to rain again today and Saturday.  Let's hope the weather man is wrong.

SHORT PARK HUNT LEADS TO SILVER

Went this morning to a park where I had found 6 wheat pennies thinking there has to be silver there.  Sure enough found a silver Washington quarter about 5 inches down - 1941.  I was finding memorial pennies deeper.  My 11th silver coin this year and 3rd within the week.  I hope this trend keeps up.  Also found a buck 14 in clad  4-q, 1-d and 4 pennies.  Who needs that other school???
