June 2010
May was a slower hunt month... I only got in 11 hunts that yielded 9 silver coins... 2 of them were 1800's silver including the 1856 Seated Liberty Quarter...
June 4th (Friday)
Hunt #38: Been 10+ days since I've been out digging... Work, travel, holiday, family get togethers.... Life in general :-)
Friday 5:30 - Hot and Humid, but I needed to get a fix :-) and I headed to a park I've been working...
There is a corner of this park that has been producing, but there is a layer of screw caps, pull tabs, and junk! This park is not one that you would generally hang out at night unless you were dealing or selling your body... so the stuff you would expect is there...
The park dates back to the mid to late 1800's. I've dug 3 Indians, 1 1892 V, and an 1856 Seated Liberty Quarter here... 10-20 wheaties as well... So in this corner I decided to dig every rough and repeatable signal... that being said...I was digging all ther 12/29's 12/22's, 12/ANYTHINGS! :-)
Then comes along.... 12/05 @ 1"... I figured is was foil or small piece of metal...
But was suprised with my 1st gold ring for 2010 (14K)
Next keeper I could not pinpoint to save my life... 12/22 @ 6"... and it was perfect before my digger got it :-(
Nice Large Jacket Button...
New York, New Haven, and Hartford was a railway line...
