Found first Silver Dollar

[shane41]

What a day. Was kind of hot out but went out coin hunting anyways. Found a park with a tot lot in the shade,so I gave it a try. Went over the tot lot once and and found some clad coins. Figure I take another sweep of the tot lot and call it a day. Got a nice sound on the Ace 250, and moved the wood chips over with my foot. Looked down and could not believe my eyes. Here laying in about 2 inches of wood chips was this beautiful 1972 silver dollar. Got so excited I called my wife up on the cell phone and told her what I just found. It really made my day spending about 2 hours in the heat.I would never expected to find this coin in a tot lot in only 2 inches of wood chips. It is a good idea to take a few extra minutes and sweep your hunting space a few extra times. On the second sweep plus the silver coin I found another 2 dimes 2 nickels and a few pennies. All told plus the silver dollar I dug up $ 2.19 in clad Enjoy the pics Shane

Not Silver but still a cool find! I've found a few clad halves but never a clad dollar. Nice one.
