I hunt a small city park quite often...I hunt it alot now that the ground is frozen - but still a lot of folks take their kids to the tot lots, etc. I've found a LOT of clad, and a nice sterling silver ring this past week right on top of the ground...I hope the park will give up some good stuff after the ground thaws - as it contains the first organized ball field from the late 1800's / early 1900's...I'm hoping for some good silver there!

Good luck and happy hunting!

So far the oldest coin I've found in my park is a war nickel.

I've hit one small city park & found a good amount of clad, plan on hitting it again when it stops raining.

In our main city park we have a 1910 Dentzel Carousel.

VisitNC.com | 1910 Dentzel Menagerie Carousel – Burlington, NC

It is one of only 14 left in the world. Now i really have never had much luck at this park. The city built the park on top of an old trash dump.


We have at least 3 or 4 more parks. All have yielded items and I keep hitting them, Beale.
