Past this park up in the past...Wish I hadn't...

Met my friend Jeremy at 7am and we hit a park I have passed by without hunting many times, thinking it was newer and nothing to be had there..Boy was I wrong! The park has promise, and the wildlife is cool too...Wish I had my video camera on me as a big tom turkey strutted out of the woodline and went across the open field for another section of woods.
I started off the day with a 1945 Merc, followed a short time after by a 1948 Wash Quarter. The quarter required very little cleaning...It came out nice and bright. Both were found at about the 7 inch mark. As we were headed back to the car, Jeremy pulled out his first Silver ever...A 1941 Merc. I think it made his day. I was happy with the hunt. A tad of clad was also found, but it was very dirty with the fertilized soil here...





Happy Hunting and stay Hydrated,
 
Congrats on the great finds !
 
Congrats on a great hunt !! I once found a 1829 Half Dime in a "new" ballfield here in Pa.
You never know what was there in the past so you just have to try all of them. Happy Hunting. :thumbup:
 
Nice finds...yep you never know. I had a park I bypassed many times. Then started stopping there for short 1/2 hunts at lunch. Never really found much but knew there had been a house there in the forties from a vintage aerial photo. Well on the third trip I was rewarded with a 2 quarter spill. 1942 Washington and a no date Lady.
