Went out with Catskill Comics and another friend today for a marathon hunt. I really didn't want to go back to this park, however it was the concensus so I obliged. :beatdeadhorse: :behave:
Got there at ~ 9am and hunted for ~ 3 hours ; I only managed to find a few wheats. A bit later, I was hunting in the trash with IM 22 and heard something..up came the 64 rosie, just made it silver. By then our friend was coming towards; hadn't seen him for hours. He had several silvers and 2 coppers (a king george and a jersey). He took us to the spot, however we found no more. :beatdeadhorse:
Several more hours and I was really no feeling it, I wanted to relocate hours ago. I manned up and said lets keep going. Maybe about 5 pm I got a deep signal. Up came some silver with the identity hidden by the dirt. I figured at this depth it had to be serious :happydance01: <:.....well needless to say, it was the other rosie. Again I meandered and found some clad, this pretty cool pendant and then at 6:15, the copper :happydance01: <:. Wow was I lucky to dig this. It came up as a dime at 4 and I could hear it wasn't silver. I decided to dig it, but I did not expect a copper, that's for sure. I thought I saw 1765 at the location...maybe the scan will show it. I am told it's a british coin and I am certain someone will chime in here on it.
My arm hurts and I'm tired but it was a fun day with theguys! :beerbuddy:

Heavymetalnut? He always gets some of these, no matter what date it is :thinkingabout: :dontknow: :dontknow: Usually it's right around the end of the 1790's and a little bit more. Draped Bust coinage is where I cut it at. It's not a set in stone date, but kind of an end of an era deal.
