Howdy from Omaha

[wats]

Hi everyone!
I am brand new and am from Omaha,NE. Recently new to the metal detecting world, I just bought my first metal detector (one I could afford) the Bounty Hunter Gold Digger. So far I have been pretty pleased with it. I have found 2 quarters and 2 pennies, about 9 nails, some landscaping staples, a decent amount of gum wrapper foil, part of an old chain from a swing and a broken pair of little kids sunglasses. I have been in my backyard and at a neighborhood park. Is there any where in Nebraska that any of you know of near Omaha that would be a good spot for me to find some treasures? I am getting discouraged with all the "trash" I am finding, however, I am happy to clean it up .

Happy Hunting,
Wats

Welcome to the forum! Remember, where there is trash, goodies hide! You may have found a "GOLD mine", perhaps other detectorists have written off this park as too trashy, leaving the goodies for you to find.
