Didn't get to hunt the whole year, missed a couple of months, but still managed to beat last years totals.

Coin wise, found 3,499 coins for a total of $220.66.

Included with this was 2 Indian Head pennys (1900 & 1902), 25 wheats, 2 Liberty (1896 & 1906), and two Buffalo (1919 & 1935), and 1 War nickel (1944P), silver included the following: 1 seated Liberty dime (1876cc), 2 Barbers (1898 & 1914D), 2 Mercurys (1936 & 1942D), and 4 Rosie Dimes (1956D, 1957D, 1959D,1964D) plus a SLQ and a 1936 Washington.

On the jewelry side, I found 7 silver rings and 3 gold rings, along with a few pieces of silver jewelry.  Also found 19 junk rings.

Also found 32 keys, 14 tokens, and 8 foreign coins.

Not bad for just hunting parks and school grounds.

Hope all of you had a good year too.
