Six silvers in doubles

[McCDig]

This was a day for silvers and one for doubles!

Stayed pretty much in just one triangle of ground, set off by a couple sidewalks in a Baltimore park. First coin was a 1902 Indian and there was another Indian late in the hunt, an 1894.

The silver coins consisted of two dimes: a 1901 Barber and a 1944 Merc, and two 1943P war nickels; one of the war nickels was removed from the hole stuck to a 1935 Buff. The Merc was part of a 3-coin spill that included wheats from the '40s and '50s. The other two silvers came in the form of .925 rings: a QVC Diamonique with cubic zirconia stones, and a second fashion ring. Some older finds included a suspender clip, civilian two-piece button and a collar stud. Ten wheats were dug in all, with the two earliest being 1909 and 1910. Well over $3 in clad.

This park is not "hunted out"!

Thanks for checking out the pics, everyone.

Thanks L-D! My approach with this park has been to hunt the areas other have not give much attention to, like the smaller triangles of grass and along sidewalks. It's paying off, as you see.

Thanks SuperShaun! That hunt was 7 hours. Lots of "swingin"...and "diggin".

Thanks J.Cache! No "cache" for me in one spot, but collectively....now that's another story.

Thanks digger460! That's what I like about these old parks. I met another detectorist there on Thursday and he found a clay marble and military cuff button that day.

Thanks Texas Ed! I'll get back to you on then next outing. Being semi-retired gives me more time to get out and detect. Been at it now seriously for about two and a half years.

Thanks beez0404! Yes, I've dug some "toasty" Buffs, but most of them this side of the park are in decent shape.
