*** 150 ***

[against the wind]

I got a late start today. Procrastinated a little over some coffee in front of the Boob Tube. I started swinging the coil in an area I had never visited before. I can tell from the amount of quarters, this place hasn't been visited by too many other treasure hunters either. Today the park was pretty empty. It is a school day and the chilly weather and 40 mph wind gusts probably had something to do with it.
I picked an area that I thought was used as a picnic grove in the summer and a sledding hill in the winter. After a little over an hour of scanning lots of clad, I got a nice little chirp. Had to dig it out from under a root from a tree stump. A 1952s Roosevelt Dime. Silver # 150 for the year.
The rest of the day was a cakewalk. I thought I would be leaving the park a little earlier than I usually do but when I finally turned off the machine, it was a little after 4 P.M. Time sure flies when you're having fun.
My finds for the day were: 35q, 30d, 2n, 60 memorials, 5 Wheat Pennies, (25, 45(2), 50, & 56d), and a 1952d Silver Roosevelt Dime. I also recovered a Hot Wheels, a U.S. Army crossed sabers w/B hat badge, a miniature camera, a bicycle reflector a couple of brass nuts, a brass lock and some copper scrap.
My 2015 Silver Coin Total is now 150 Coins.
Happy Friday the 13th everybody

Wow! Nice!
I have been doing this MD thing for about two months with my new CTX 3030. I have found around 100 newer coins, I have yet to find anything to post on here. Still learning.

Can't fathom that number. You 100+ folks are some home run sluggers of metal detecting.

Hey Butch,
Welcome to the hobby. You have selected a top shelf machine. Be patient and swing slow.
The CTX 3030 is a silver magnet.

That's a first. What I thought to be a Collar Disk having the clip, never seen one.
With over eight million people visiting any of the city's parks a year. You've only scratched the surface.

Quite a good day I'd say- heck, you can buy a nice silver coin with all those quarters & dimes if you want!

Congrats on the #150! That's a nice mile stone to reach for the season, you really dig a lot of coinage out of the park systems. I'm liking the little camera. it's a cool find.
