Question? Does Anyone Periodically Re-Bury A Find For Someone Else To Find?

No matter if I hunt the spot regular or not. I cart out what ever I dig up. It would be considered bad manners here to re bury a zinc or leave trash. To each his own, but I have a good rapport with the parks people and such. Gonna keep it that way too. I have been to tot lots with bb's and zinc pennys. While its a wasted hour or so, I do clean them up if Im going hunt that spot again.

Now certain things po me. Razor blades, fish hooks, needles, used condoms. I usually dont go back to those places. I almost got stuck by a syringe a few weeks ago. It was buried in the sand under a slide. Right where a kid would get stuck with it. What is wrong with people.

I am the same way.

Yes, but not in a good way. Several years ago I was having pretty good luck with finding gold and silver at a sand volleyball court located in a public park about five minutes away from my home. All of a sudden I started finding next to nothing, the obvious reason was another detectorest getting their first. I started putting a zinc penny in a certain spot in the sand and would check it several times per day. When the penny would disappear I would replace it in a different location until I learned when the other detectorest visited the volleyball court. Now I simply go there earlier.

I stopped detecting in the 80s. Too many newer pennys. Just left them in the hole for someone else

I seem to remember about 15 years ago in Dallas parks there was a guy. He had coins made up with his name on them followed by "Was Here First" or something like that and would put them in his holes. I always thought that was neat. Never found one though, just heard word of it.

I buried a baby food jar . Sealed with wax.. Then the original cap.
Filled with Wheat cents and one Mercury dime.
Hope I made someones day. I checked about two years later and it was gone.
