Another thing relic hunting does

It makes one appreciate those "clad" days.

Today I found 3 zincolns, a new nickel, a clad dime and one play penny. That's it!

Anyone needs pics to remember what they look like? LOL

Thanks for stopping by.

I keep a running total of finds each year on my profile. There have been many days when I went looking for a Zincoln because my penny total was an unbelievable one like 222, lol. I guess we can forego the pics...this time. Lol.

I despise clad because it gets in the way of the good stuff, but on the other hand it pays for new batteries and sometimes a few gallons of gas. There is an area of bay near me that people must use as a wishing well or something similar because it's always full of clad. I'm talking so much clad that at low tide you can just simply scoop up shovels of sand into a sifter and there will be at least $0.50-$1.00 in clad change each time. I once brought home $27 in change from just one trip, didn't even use the detector - couldn't use it even if I wanted to - because the sand there literally beeps no matter where you stand. I like this spot for its free clad but there is never anything else of value there so I don't usually go more than once a month just to collect what I know will be there. The best stuff like the gold and silver can only be found on Long Island's barrier islands where there are plenty of careless jewelry flaunting swimmers.

Good, but actually, I was kinda going for "No pics, it never happened". I was hoping I could. LOL

I think I still hold the title for low score for a days hunt, a few years back, on the beach I got 1/2 a corroded zinc (not even a whole one!) and a hand full of pop tops! Go Me! ....not! Lol! Since that day it's all been looking up! Lol!
The other day I found a plastic play nickel laying on the ground, thought it was real till I picked it up!

As long as you have a spare key your good!

As the wise one said, "patience grasshopper it will come to you"

I celebrate your finds! Proves the detector is working and so are you!

If that doesn't make you a Titleholder at least your a strong contender.

I have to agree with WAHTIFIND as in: no pictures, it never happened. It's his story and he's sticking to it.
