    Todays hunt yields 400th Rosie

    Was hoping to find my 400th Rosie this year (since 2012) but it has been a struggle for silver this year. I tried a couple Parks today and luck was with me. The 1st Park was not showing much promise till I found back to back Wheaties. I figured it has enough age to keep trying for some silver. I got a not so great 12-44 that was not very promising but when I pooped out some dirt 2 Rosies stuck together popped out (399 & 400) in one pop. The signal was low due to a wheatie and 2 memorials in the same hole. Hit another Park I found 1 Rosie at a couple years back and was lucky enough to find 2 Washingtons, 1 Merc and 8 more Wheaties which got my Wheaties total to 300 on the year. Also found a ton of clad and a nice silver ring. Definitely one of my better hunts in the last couple of months. Wisconsin Digger
