Hello Everyone,
Today, my daughter and I went hunting for five hours at various (school, park and field) places. The temperature was around 42 degrees with little wind, nice for digging. The ground in some of the places was frozen one inch below the surface and needed to be “asked” rather harshly with a Raptor 25 C to give up the goods. In this weather clad coin surface finds are always welcome. All in all, a great time hunting with my daughter with some silver surprises. She found the only silver coin a 1902 Barber dime. Another silver cross was found, I think that makes seven since last January; “someone” is telling me something! Cleaning out the clad at those places was fun and profitable with $ 4.75 dollars today and $ 7.48 yesterday totaling $12.23 dollars! We also found some jewelry, an eagle military button and the usual trash.
Thank you for looking.

My 11 year old is starting to really hang with it, though. Good luck on future hunts!
