Back to SLQ Park - Nine Silver Coins Today

Another beautiful sunny day here in Illinois! :happy:

Today I tried three new parks. The first one paid off with 2 silver Rosies and a few wheat cents. The other two parks didn't produce anything of note.

So I went back to "SLQ Park" (for want of a better name) and found 7 more silver coins there today.

Here are today's finds:

Wow Tony you my friend our an awesome detectorist its not even april yet and you have 24 silvers :shocked03: cant wait to see your season totals this year keep up the awesome detecting sir HH

I'm going to have to move out of state. Pretty soon there won't be anything left here in Illinois. .:lolsign:

Seriously, congrats on another great hunt. Nine silvers and a cool token. :wow:

I hope you were wearing glove when you scooped out that bottle top.

I knew i shoulda called you. I hada feeling you'd be out on such a nice day. I was passing through yor neck of the woods.
Another. Killer day!
Congrsts!:grin:
At one point I couldn't stand ot any more and pulled over and hunted a small town park. Got a Merc! Scratched a itch!!:lol:

SWEET Tony! I found one of those things you showed in your last pic once. I don't know what they are either and would like to know. :)

Beautiful finds Tony !! I also love the way you present your coin finds ! That first picture is very nice.

Nice Tony! You are off to a great start. The ground is still snow covered here and it's 29 degrees today. I'm so jealous!

Nice silver. The 24 merc seems like an uncommon date. seems the SLQ park is a hot spot. Maybe the first new park you will hit again. The last pic looks odd with the teeth section but those 4 tabs on the top and bottom Def say it slid in a track. Possibly similar to an older window sash slide.

Dang...

SLQ park produced big time Tony. :clapping: I do like the name. :yes:

Gorgeous bunch of coins in the top photo. Love it!. Congratulations.

WTG Tony, finds like that make me want to start digging thru that 6" of snow we still have on the ground.

as always you manage to sniff out silver you must have a gift with that e trac congrats on a great hunt

Wow, great hunt. Nice to see all that silver. WD

I found a token similar to the one above. Apparently August W. Maxe was the proprietor of a store in Staunton, IL, and was listed in the 1900 census as a baker and confectioner.

By the way, I found this token about 80 miles away from Staunton, IL. :thumbsup01:

Great haul of precious metal Tony! That token is neat....:thumbsup02:

Really enjoyed the video also...:grin:

Another pile of silver and a cool token. Nice hunt !

WTG Tony, you are killing it so far this year, keep it up. :clapping:
