Got out for a park hunt last evening. Stayed about 2 hours including waiting out a 20 minute rain break but was quite happy with the result nevertheless.

The silver Half Crown was the first hit within 3 paces of starting out. Hoped for another but not this time.
$10.00 plus two silvers and an 1873 penny was the best of it.
