Not much except .54 cents, a merc which is a 36d and 2 rings (junk). Was with another individual who after I left found 2 silver dollars stacked on each other a 1921 and 1923

    It's always nice to see that silver pop out of the ground.

    Wow... He found two silver dollars? Peace dollars I would think... and a 1921? That is special, have him check if it is a high relief... if not damaged, it is worth a bit. Cheers, RickO

    Yeah a 21 Morgan and 23peace they were stacked and a little off-center of each other. Here's a picture both s mint

    Oh... the '21 is a Morgan... Would have been better if it were a Peace....Let them soak in acetone and rinse with alcohol and hot, running water... do not rub with anything. Then show us again. Cheers, RickO

    Short hunt yesterday close to that area and another silver coin for me 45s war nickel and 28s wheatie.

    Im sure theres more still there, may have found the area near the original home stead for the park (was a cattle ranch area until the owner passed and gifted the land to the city) in the teens or twenties
