Mysterious disappearing coolant

1988 Convertible 5spd. New heater valve, newer radiator. All clamps secured securely. Properly bled. No dripping, gushing, splattering anywhere (except minor oil drip from passenger front) Oil looks clean, Coolant not overly milky, or shiny and doesn't smell like oil. But I'm still losing a gallon of coolant every 24-48 hours... The only hose connection I really can't see is the lower radiator hose where it enters the block, but again, no pronounced drippings. Anyone want to tell me that it's something besides a failing HG?
Thanks
Christian in Jacksonville
