Finally got some Metal Detecting in with friends today! We started out at a local beach and found nothing but pull tabs and bottle caps so that was a bust. I was somewhat disappointed in that since the fireworks display had taken place on the lake just six days ago. Then we went back to my favorite hunting grounds, the local grade school. This place never fails to produce coins and interesting buttons or tokens. We had a good haul in three hours and the weather was perfect. I kept a button and let the rest go to my friends and their two sons, they were happy finding quarters, dimes and pennies. Oddly enough we didn't find any nickles. In any case it was good to get out and get some fresh air! I needed it after a long stint of doing nothing but work and college! I did get 30 minutes or so of beach combining in on Simmons Island in Kenosha but that too had been picked over. I haven't had a lot of luck beach combing as yet but I will keep going at it until I get good at it. Perhaps a different coil will do the trick, or maybe a mesh basket, or better yet maybe just more practice!
