And I do not use a pin pointer, and recover ALL targets with an 8 inch screwdriver. Speeds up the recovery on clad targets. Thanks for looking.

Holy crap, did you walk on knees the whole time? Did someone push you in one of those tiny garden seats?

Yes, I know, but spent most of my time on my knees, popping out coins, in an area the size of a football field.....what amazes me, is this is the 4th time I have been there, and from the picture, only a few shiny drops are recent.....but this is a very large County school complex, and a lot more coins are there. Thanks for your comment.

Hi Sarge......I do consider this small town a virgin area, even though I have been there 4 times....and this was the grade school.....I have not been to the High School or Middle school yet.......Maybe next time.

P.S. Thank you for your service......I am a Army Retired LTC, but joined in 1966 as a Pvt then went to OCS......retired in 1986. I loved the military and the places I served even SE Asia.......

HH......Bill
