I took the camera today and got a few shots on site:
...I have never been much for cameras and pictures - but thats gonna change. Here's todays foto's.
This is the park I visited today with my Ace 250. It is quite large and is on a steeply sloping hill. The blue structures at center right are the swings, which I never got far from today. Nearly all the finds came from around or near them
The nice thing about this park is its on some old ground. Down the hill, in the far left distance, is where the city once had its only "greespace", going back a hundred years+. Everything from Mayday Festivals to Boy Scout Camperees happened there. Its plowed and developed, for the most part.
But, from the park to behind and up to the top of the hill was an old luxury hotel which burned down in 1912. Ive found some older coins down that hill and there are little pockets scattered all over the park and the neighborhood. Good area of town.
Here's what turned up today. That's a Chuck E. Cheese game token next to the quarter (ID: notch below zincer). In the middle is a junk bracelet (eyeballed) in which are a silver chain-pendant heart earring (eyeballed ), a motor from a little toy vehicle (eyeballed) and a large anchor (eyeballed). It is probably an NJROTC cap insignia, as it's missing the "USN" letters - which it would have if it was Naval issue.
Also see the .22 cal bullet and the little snap - Ace 250 finds more itsy bits!
Here's my weak attempt at a composite perspective shot. The total finds,including the trash, my custom made pipe-fitting digger and the Ace. Too much fun.
