My son and I ventured a little farther from home to a new park that was established in the early 1900's.
I wasn't even so sure of the date of the park but I knew the homes that lined the park were old. At first we were a little skeptical as it is a well known park. Starting off the first half hour exploring the park, getting clad. Then we came to the sweet spot and found some goodies. ;D The Barber was about an inch or two deep right next to a picnic table. Most of the good stuff came from a "small" area.
The 165 coin total is for both Sat and Sunday(most on Sat). We only planned the Saturday hunt but the weather was so nice we went back today. :)

That is one great big haul! WTG!!
 

Awesome finds!! There is a park around here that dates back to around the turn of the century that I have hit a few times, found a few old wheats and a 1928 Buffalo.......maybe I should go back. Great Job!! Beautiful coins!!

Thanks Nana. The tolken is some kind of "good luck" tolken. Says something about luck coming to the bearer of the tolken. Picture of a wizard looking into a crystal ball. My son found it so I don't know if he found it before or after finding the barber. At least the future looks bright. ;)


Also, thanks all - I think this might be the last post for us this year. Looking forward to next year.

That's a fantastic day Mirage. I guess that token really did bring you some luck! If I were you, I'd get it cleaned up and made into a necklace to wear when hunting!
