[kane23]

Hi,
The coin totals were good for the year though I did worse in nickels(634 compared to 801 last year),dollars( 20 compared to 24),and gold rings (none compared to 6,it was a bad year for gold rings) and non prescious metal rings (36 compared to 44 last year). December was a let down because the ground was frozen on the 3rd and still is, it was cold in Texas where I found only 147 coins and I did'nt find much in Arizona (119 coins), though it was nice there.

Dimes; 2805 last year; 2767 (oldest 1931-s)
Quarters; 3163 Last year; 2440 It was a good year for quarters, I set my one day record at 214. (oldest 1918-d) 1077 were states and teritorial quarters.
Half dollars; 5 (oldest 1943) Other rings; 36 Last year 44
Dollars; 20 Last year 24 Tokens; 36 Last year 31

I'm not sure if there is a record in the Guinness book of world records of the most coins recovered in a year using a metal detector or not. However you would make a good candidate 8)

Wow, $989.79 in face value, that's a lot of coins, and mostly clad! Are you out detecting daily?

I've heard of someone finding over 38,000 in one year.

Haha, make a mistake... that's a sure fire way to always get a response from someone! I think I did not read how you wrote this years totals vs. last years properly. Now I see it. Either way, great going.

You didn't say how often you go detecting though.

 

[kane23]

Nick, I average about 12 hours a week unless I do a long day on a weekend or during the summer. I hope you do well also...kane23

Your no slouch yourself. The weather here is bad, I hav'nt been able to detect for more than a week. I really loathe winter! Gas has gone way up, so it's to expensive to go south. Kane23
