Made it back to 'Seated' park this morning for a few hours of searching. Targets are getting harder to find
than when I first stepped foot at this site. But, once again the park rewarded me for my efforts.

Also found a neat token.

This park surprisingly held many nice coins that made for some very fun hunts since the first week of August.
To date, here is what I have pulled out:
Seated Dimes = 4
Barber Dimes = 9
Mercury Dimes = 5
Shield Nickel = 1
V Nickels = 7
Buffalo Nickels = 6
Indian Heads = 33

After I check out two more small town, out of the way parks on my list... I plan on focusing my efforts at a couple of
old properties that I finally received permission to hunt last week. I've been spending the majority of my time at parks and churches this
season and I am looking forward to getting back on some home sites. Coins are always fun to dig, but I just don't
find many relics in the parks here. I've always had more luck in old yards for interesting relics. :yes:

Good variety of old coins with this hunt, Joe, and that token is really cool! I have never seen one like it. You certainly have pulled a good number of spectacular finds from that park! Four seated dimes, WOW!
