Two miles from the old train station got hit by killer tornadoes two day's ago. Much of the area is under a curfew. The tornadoes hit less then 10 miles from my house. 20 people died so far.
I went out MDing for 2 1/2 hours. I met the lady who called the cops on me. She was walking across the train tracks with her dog. She wanted to know what I was doing. I talked to her for a while. She told me she calls the police often because of trouble makers in the area. She told me she had permission to cross the tracks and go in to the state park from the back way. OH sure, right. Now that we made friends, I shouldn't have any more trouble MDing there. I thought I was on the freeway. There where about 30 dirt bikes that came by and 6 people walking. I think everybody wanted to know what I was doing.
Again, unbelievable amount of trash. Mostly lead. I had a lot of mystery targets. They were from iron rusting. Many time it was just a rust spot in the dirt. I only put a sample of the trash find in the picture. The Holley carburetor was too much. Can you find the 1800 large cent?

I couldn't find it either. I about had a heart attack when I dug the token up. I was yelling out loud. It was about time. I thought it was a large cent. It was dark brown and the right size. I couldn't tell for sure till I wiped the dirt off. It is my luck. the first day there with the sniper and I find two old coins 50 ft. apart. After that, 1936 cent and trasssssshhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!
