Tried another small park tonight before heading to my productive one. The first park didn't yield much more
than a few wheat cents. Met a guy that lives across the street from that park... he's a Minelab user too. After a
while I moved on to the park I hunted a few days ago.

A couple of the IH's are kind of rough. They are dated 1880 and 1882.
The dime and '02 cleaned up nicely though. :happydance01:

Glad to hear you are coming back in October :clapping: ... don't worry, I am sure I leave plenty of good ones behind. :yes:

Monday and Tuesday I am booked, but Tuesday evening looks pretty good to go. How about early tomorrow morning for a few hours?



you must have nice soil there as a lot of the IH's you find have great detail....HH

We are very fortunate to have gentle soil here. The majority come out very nice but some do get corroded.



I really like the looks of the Barber coins

Me too. :smitten: Such a neat looking coin.
