Old Town Park in The Woods Best Day Detecting to Date! Seated Dime Indians Shields V

[Blueblood]

I received permission to detect a patch of woods that used to the a park to a town that lost to its bigger rival for existence. The town sat south of the park. It is now a wooded area near the river. I did find the old outdoor theater foundation. Had one of the best detecting days so far!! First time detecting in the woods too believe it or not. The woods protected me from the elements more than I realized. Not too bad digging the floor with the Predator. Cut right through the roots. I hope to return tomorrow if the snow and colder temps aren't too bad.

Nice going. Seated and big silver are two of my favorite finds. I also find lots of Indians, but still love finding them.

Good thinking on the site, congrats on some great finds, now get out there and dig up some more!

Wow that site might cough up keepers for a while. Grats

Thanks! I am having my breakfast and looking at out at the snow. It's very, very almost dangerous, 22f. I thought about getting hand warmers for my boots. And, maybe just keep the site for another day and enjoy the wood stove with a cup of coffee and good book....

Congrats on an impressive set of finds. I am a "coin guy", and you got a really nice hand full of old coins there.

All those IHCs and V nickels... there are bound to be Barber and more seated coins there.

Best of luck, and I look forward to your next installment!

Great batch of finds Blueblood. I love detecting in the woods. As you found out, there are some great coins between those trees.

I know how your feeling right now. Ive got a dream spot myself and the weather is just not cooperating. Just getting out in winter is a bonus I guess. Nice work

I don't blame you one bit for heading out! Regular people don't understand that drive that motivates us. If there is a reasonable chance of finding something good, very few things will get in the way of the pursuit. Best of luck to you!
