	2 hour park hunt « on: October 08, 2009, 07:06:35 pm »

I had a couple of hours to burn today so I went to a park near my house. This park is located on a lake and I didnt think it was very old so I didnt expect to find any old coins. I put my big coil back on my E-trac so I could cover some ground fast. It is just like every other Texas park by the lake full of tabs and screw caps. I was sweeping fast and and skipping deep targets and for sure zinc pennies when I got a funny high pitch tone 12/44 so I dug it and it was a 56 wheaty. Shocked

It was only down about 2 inches. Then in another 20 feet I got the same sound again and I got another wheaty it was a 57. Great

I didnt get any silver today but I am going back and I am going to work this park over slow. I did get one small ring and a $1.68 in change and a childs fork.

Hellow Tim

The city I live in has 22 of these small parks most about an acre or so. I never expected to find the wheat pennies.
I dont think the park has been hunted before because there are so many good targets in the ground. The ground only has a few inches of dirt ontop of solid granite bedrock. If it wasnt raining today I would be back out there going low and slow trying to scrub out some more wheaties or maybe some silver.

Thanks
Todd
