Back in St. Louis for a visit and the usual finds... :sleepy:

[Mike Moutray-SW FLA]

Flew into town to get my move back home finalized before I pilot the moving truck in. Of course I had to bring a detector to give the local parks a try with a few spare hours of time. It started off well enough with 4 seated coins, 1847 and 1857O half dimes, 1876CC and 1888 dimes, at the most hammered park in town! I visited some others with good results as well. The pic shows the goodies for my trip, including a nice 10K gold ring with emerald that needs to be straightened, an 1820's Dutch East Indies coin, a few barbers, indians, an old Ford key, diary lock, punchtag for Georgina Porter, and lots more. The pic sucks, but it was the best I could do in a hurry!

I was missing the coinshooting back home, and you can see from the pic why, but I will also miss the beaches and the chance for some nice jewelry. I do look forward to getting back home.
Take care and HH, Mike.

The last time you, me, goldigger and that other guy detected around St. Louis I thought you guys cleaned out that whole area.

I see by your finds that there is just no such thing as a cleaned out park.

Are you moving back to St. Louis area?
