Back to the old Amusement Park w/ new x-terra :detecting:

[BadaBing]

This place has been amazing since I started hunting it early this year. This park was open in 1894 as a picnic ground and was an amusement park up until 1987. It is now being excavated and condos are to be built soon. I was asked to leave by one of the property owners but was recently granted permission to hunt as I please. Found my first spoon ring an old lipstick tube w/ lipstick still in it, and a V nikel. Found a strange coin and its driving me nuts. Any info would be great. I used a garrett Ace 250 up until recently and it was good to me. These are the finds using the x-terra the past month. Check out my pics of previous finds from the park under BadaBing.

Great finds. Be sure to follow the bulldozers, you'll make some more good finds if you do. Looks like a fantastic place to hunt. I'm betting there is still a lot to find.

Good hunting, John K

That place should be a gold mine! Look for the rides that spun real fast. Good luck and HH, Mike

What a great site. Once in a lifetime if at all.

BTW - I have an OSHA approved hardhat for detecting in construction areas. It's mostly a formality since they all require hardhats for insurance purposes. And you look just like any other subcontractor, inspector or responsible person and usually won't get bothered. Unless they are actually working, then just ask the job site forman.
