Got up early today with the kids and hit three parks. Total clad for the day $7.69. Including one 1942 wheat cent. The first park had a beach on the river. I worked the water and came up with one ring and two earing's. The second park was new, in and older part of town, still had the building permits on the fence. Found some clad in the wood chips. The rest of the park just a lot of junk. Looks like they just bulldozed the old houses and covered with fill, almost impossible to detect a good signal. The third park was established in the 1950's. This is where I found the wheat cent. I think someone hit the park before I got there, saw a lot of filled holes. Found about $3.00 in clad in about an hour. Strangely, I didn't find one pull tab. I guess whoever was there before me got them all and left the clad for me. lol

This is my first posting. Year to date I found approx. $80.00 in clad. The following pictures are the rest of the keepers. I usually work two parks in my area. One park, according to Sanborn maps was a fairground in 1922, thats where I found the Barber dime and the Walker. The other park is newer but I hit it about every two weeks and I usually find a few dollars in clad and if I'm lucky a ring.

Hi morgandollar. You have had a great year so far.
Those are some real nice rings and pendants. I really like the one with the picture in it.
I used to live in Florida, Fort Walton Beach, while in the Air Force and I know theres a lot of beach and parks to detect. Maybe thats why a lot of us seasoned folks retire there....

Keep safe...

Cool locket with the picture still in good order!
 

Excellent pics and excellent-er finds ;)

Welcome to TN!

Nice finds! I'll bet that Walker put a smile on your face. You can't beat gold and silver rings either!

Looking forward to your posts and Happy Hunting!

Great finds and cool post! You have found some really nice stuff there. The locket is really cool too. Looks like you nailed quite a few rings there too.
Congrats!
