A Perfect Day For Beach and Snipe-ing! Paid Well w/ Silver, Bills, and Clad Coins!

[thecolonel]

This was my last day for the week of carefree frolicking at the beach as the rain moves in tomorrow. Saturday and Sunday is being sniped by the wife. Anyway, I had a good day as the weather held out this a.m. For my efforts at the beach, I recovered $4.24 in change and a silver K pendant! On the way home, I stopped at a beach store that has a vac. I sniped the contents of the submerged canister. A sloppy affair to say the least. Processed it at home and came out with $17.76 in clad and bills. Yes, I said bills. $6.00 in bills. It amazes me how the general public rather suck it up instead of looking through the trash before vacuuming. My gain. Grand total today? $22.+ as well as silver pendant, a birthstone still attached to its silver mount and a now collectible New Hampshire Road Token. Not to mention fresh air and well needed exercise!

The corner of the parking lot was flooded w/ standing water and the vacuum was submerged in 6 inches of water and the contents wicked it up.
