Safe spot today

Cheap Thrills

Today I went to one of my nearby tired out safe places a place where Gangstas can't drive by . Just a peaceful out of the way park where there is a tennis court , a baseball diamond and a lot of grass for dogwalking , picnicking and the folks there are even nice to metal detectorists ( especially when they have seen him with his Mutt there on several occasions . .The first 1 1/2 hrs. I hunted it , I had my dog with me . She sticks close by but every few minutes she insists I throw a stick for her . not the most ideal situation for concentration but I still manage an occasional find and she gets a workout .
My Sun ray Pro Headphones seemed to have developed a short where the plug goes to the detector . The phones seemed to work but when I would kneel down to dig there was a constant buzz . I decided I would drive home drop off the dog and pick up my old Killer Bees .I went back and continued for another 1 1/2 hrs. I guess I hadn't noticed that the old Sunray Pro's besides developing the short had lost a lot of their sharpness .The Bee's had been recently repaired and made new by the factory .What a difference !!The tones where much sharper and I could really hear the warble from the Explorer SE on the high conductors . The silver and two more wheats a few more memorials and another clad dime surfaced to join the other coins I had already found .
It ended up being a good hunt with a 59D and 60D Roosie , three wheats ( 44S,58 and 59 )two clad dimes,9 memorials and of course no hunt with my SE is complete unless I get fooled by deep iron . >:{

Thanks for looking and happy hunting .
:groovy:

Looks like changing the headphones may have payed off! thumbsup01
Any hunt you bring home silver is a winner in my book! :yes: :clapping:
And hey man. Don't feel bad about the iron. I get fooled even when I know it's going to be a piece of iron! lol 8/
Nice hunt!
Congrats ! :grin:
 
A two silver hunt with a couple of wheats is a winner any time in my book!!! Congrats.

To bad things have gotten to safe parks. If everyone knows a park is not safe then it should be fixed but what ever means it takes!!!!
 
Congratulations on the silvers and wheats!! :peace: Sounds like a peaceful park. It's true that too many of them are just not safe if you are wearing headphones.

Speaking of which, I think you need to keep using those old Killer Bee's! |:cheering:

I wish I could say that I don't still dig up nails like that 8/ They do sound good :yes:
 
Nice silver and wheats, every detector fools every detectorist with the dreaded deep iron. glad you were able to avoid the gangsta's. Congrats on your finds
 
Hey, at least you found one silver coin for each piece of deep iron! lol

I would take that every time! thumbsup01

Congrats on the safe, peaceful hunt and the nice finds! :clapping:
