2008 COWBOYS Training Camp

The Dallas Cowboys just left Oxnard after a few weeks of training.
They get a lot of visitors in two weeks time.
The area is part of an old river bottom, that also was a landfill/dump.

The area between the parking and green grass (black x) had the venders tents set up.

DFX with BigFOOT coil PAG set at 1. I did not want to go deep
So I set out to cherry pick clad in the bark ground cover. The dirt is HARD packed under one inch of bark.
My first target...pop top :-|
Second hit SILVER DIME :-)
1900 S. WOW Did not think that would be in the area.

    I don't if it matters or not, but the Mintmark on that coin looks to be upside down. I'm not familiar with varieties on Barber's.

    Cool find!
