\Hey folks,
Spent a couple hours hitting curb strips today. Lots of targets but the only old coin was a 1950-S wheatie. The Canadian dime had me going, too bad it's a '75. Can't win them all!

Congrats on pulling all those coins. Look like you had a good day coin shooting.
You just never know what's in a curb strip unless you swing your coil over it. My only Franklin Half, a Walker, an SLQ, and my only 1700's silver (Spanish Real) came from curb strips. What coil were you using? I hit a curb strip on a corner lot with the fisher stock DD and pulled 50 coins, thought I cleaned it out. I went back a few months later playing around with the 5"DD and pulled 50 more coins. I find it amazing how many good targets can be masked by trash and have been using smaller coils since last season for better target separation.
Just using the stock coil actually. I do have a smaller coil, I should try it sometime!
