I have been searching a spot that has lots of shade trees and a river that runs through it. In my opinion, any shaded spot, preferably with a gentle sloping hill, that overlooks a body of water is a magnet for people who will lounge and lose coins.
Yesterday I got a chance to put in a 4 hour search. I took advantage of the 80 degree weather although the humidity was a little high.
I found a mess of clad but I also came home with a 1951 Roosevelt Dime. My silver coin finds total for 2015 is now 108.
