I knew that park had potential...

Beautiful weather here in central Illinois today! High of 63, just right for metal detecting! Unfortunately I had to work today, but only until noon. So when the clock struck twelve I was off to the races!

I returned to the park that I hunted brielfy on Thanksgiving morning. That day I found 2 Indian Heads, 3 wheat cents, an old suspender buckle and some clad in about 45 minutes of hunting, so I knew there was a very good chance that there was more there!

Today I hunted the park for about 3 1/2 hours and I ended up finding 1 Indian Head, 11 Wheat Cents, 2 Barber Dimes, 2 Mercury Dimes and some clad and a few relics.

Here are today's finds:

I guess this is a cufflink. It looks kind of old to me.

I really like this Girl Scouts badge. It is very solid and heavy. Looks to be an older one.

Thanks for looking and happy hunting! :beerbuddy:

very nice wtg |:cheering:

Wow Tony, I would say you were right on the money with that park! Way to take advantage of the nice weather and pull some more keepers! |:cheering:

Another gorgeous pile of coins Tony. :clapping: Congrats.

Looks like this park is loaded with keepers. :-> Can't wait to see what shows up next.

Very nice Tony! Congrats on some very nice keepers! I got skunked working a cornfield today. I was hoping to maybe find a seated half! HH, Dave.

4 silver day and some wheaties to very good hunt Tony.wtg.

WTG Tony, Awesome Silver. Love the Girl Scout pin. :congrats:

Great four silver day you had there Tony thumbsup01

Looks like you were right about that park. Nice score on the silvers and your other keepers. The GS pin does look to be an old one. :congrats:

After doing a little research on the Kum-A-Part cufflink it appears that it is from the 1920s. It looks like it was once silver plated. Pretty neat.

Very nice. I'd pound that park for a good while thumbsup01

Nice finds love the silver dimes and Indian head

Good 45 minute hunt! You couldn't hunt all of the open parks here in north Dallas in a day, much less 45 minutes, and find a quarter of that loot. Y'all are lucky. If it ain't private, it is pitiful. martin

Very nice double down dime day! :congrats:

From the land of the Bluenose.....youz silver magnet me bouy. great outing and all the best in the new year.....and for the remaining of dis un! <;)
