Hello everyone. I just want to get a feel for how much everyone earns from this hobby. I know I'll never get rich from this and that's not the point. It's fun to find cool things and there is always the rush from pulling that unknown item out of the plug. But I would like to know if any of you have figured out what you make per hour of detecting, from face value of clad to retail value of rarer items.
My average is about 30 cents per hour. I haven't found any high dollar items yet so that's pretty much all clad. Some days are better and some days are worse. I know something like a 1916D merc can up that average a lot!
