    How do I follow Al's post? Here goes...

    Name: IMG_1188.jpg Views: 127 Size: 55.0 KBName: IMG_1212.jpg Views: 116 Size: 40.3 KBName: IMG_1213.jpg Views: 127 Size: 30.5 KBName: IMG_1214.jpg Views: 127 Size: 28.9 KBName: IMG_1215.jpg Views: 110 Size: 50.6 KBAnother hunt with Al and Steve...this golf course is awesome! The 4 Mercs are 35, 36, 40s and 41d. The Rosie is 1952. The gilt button matches the one I found there last week ( the greenie) exactly. The Croatal bell is actually only half there, I thought I'd show you the good half. A buckle, a couple of flat buttons and the Merry Widows condom tin were also dug up along with 6 wheaties the oldest being 1939. Together the three of us found 19 silver coins... on 1 hole!!! And I'm sure we missed a few. Have a nice Easter everyone!
