Last two hunts: relics and coins

[JimmyCT]

First hunt I hit a park that has been blasted to death. However I noticed the town had cut back an area of shrubs. So I headed on over and started hunting in between the shrubs and within 20 minutes I found the two mercs and rosey. Moral of the story, when the landscape changes, make sure you hunt the area.

The second park I hit was my second visit. Quite a bit of history and has also been pummeled. On my first visit, (Sunday, June 27) I took a good look around and headed towards a high spot at edge of the field. This is where I recovered the Bronze Right Sided Collar Disk. This disk is Type 1 and made between 1910-1924. FWCRAWFORD identified this find. Thank you Felix!!

My second visit was today (7/4/2021) I decided since this park has been worked over in the obvious spots, I decided to walk the woods. I am glad I did!! Reading the land and seeing the remnants of old trails, I found the SLQ, Barber dime and IH cent. I also found several wheat cents. The earliest dating to 1910.

Happy 4th of July!!

Those are a great bunch of finds! Especially like the SLQ, dated ones are a tough chore. The patriotic design makes it a great Independence Day find!

Nice recovery, your exactly right about keeping your eyes open for a change in the landscape, that's like virgin ground.

Nice finds there Jim!!!
You are right about looking for recently cleared areas to search…. I have been lucky to have gotten into a few places like that and made some great finds.
