Lots of change in local park!

[TheElementOfSand]

Found a nice pile of change in the local park this afternoon with my sweetie. Was all in about a 10 foot circle and all 1999 and earlier. 2 dimes, 14 nickels, 27 pennies, 1 hunk of steel, some copper wire, a few pulltabs, 1 cut off bolt, a few pull tabs and a 22 round.

Now that's saturation detecting!

Good for you. Judging on your finds I would bet there is someone else hunting that park with their detector s discrimination set high enough to knock out nickels, and they don't dig their penny signals. So lots of pennies and nickels left behind, and an occasional dime that sometimes sounds like a penny. That's okay they are leaving plenty for you including the potential to find gold rings since they come in at the foil or nickle range and would also be bypassed by the other hunter.

Well I have done some research on the park ive been searching and I know the land was occupied by a home owner back in the 1800's so I know theres potential there for something great. Its only been a public park since the 1950's, but i know the small woods thats still on the property have been there since the 1800's as well and not planted. I will have to wait till it gets cooler and the vegitation dies back a bit before I can get into the woods.
