If you want to pile up the clad, hit the playgrounds at the schools and parks. It's a ton easier than digging it in the dirt at playing fields. Got a couple pounds of coinage today at a few playgrounds but it was sweaty, indecent work. Mostly because it was me doing it.

Nice take for a few hours. I've gotten less than that after a full day some times. The more you do this, the more you'll love it.

Hey Bock,

In case you read this thread again, I thought I'd give you a bit of motivation.

Here is a shot of the clad I've found with my Ace 250, from 2006-2008. I haven't used it much since, but plan to this summer more. This pile represents my efforts with the Ace 250 in tot lots, parks, and beaches. It is over six hundred dollars worth, and I've yet to cash it all in (haven't gotten a tumbler yet!)...so, in case you ever get frustrated, just remember that all that clad adds up eventually. I can buy myself three new Ace 250s with this stuff! Better yet, a nice sand scoop and maybe a spare backup pinpointer. Keep us posted.

Joe

You could be the vendoteria king with all that clad, Joe! Snickers and Mountain Dew for everyone!

Yep. . . it'll add up fast and look pretty good around the end of the year :wink:

And that's not counting the wheat's & silver you score along the way :icon_pirat:

thanks guys.

joe, you have a nice pile of loot there. i was wondering where did the dollar bill ring in at? ;D

lol! Actually, I have found several dollar bills while metal detecting, but I spent those immediately! That one in the photo was just for size reference.

But it probably would have rung up very low. lol
