When It's not raining I'm out detecting, which means maybe twice a week! Will this rain ever stop? Anyway... Went for a couple hunts after I found the seated and found nothing. Then after the soil dried out a little I found this.

No marking on it, but it rang up as silver and it doesn't look plated.
Next I hit a spot I haven't been to in years. Pulled this out of the hole.

Next hunt I go to my honey hole. Find a spot with no metal and noise cancel/ground balance. Second swing I get a nice tone. Out pops a 1945P war nick! Then as I'm about to go home I get a high tone and pops this 1964 Rosey.

And yesterday I hit the spot where I found the 2 nice LC's and got a very weird tone. Numbers all over the place. But there was a high tone in there that kept showing up. I found this.

A coin purse! But I think this is newish and just has some old clad in it. I didn't even look in it. So I finish detecting and go home and turn the purse upside down and out pops a 1941 quarter! So now I'm excited!

Here's what was in it:
One 1941 P quarter.
No dimes
5 nickels all in the 1960's. 1965 is the oldest date.
10 memorial pennies 1959 to 1967.
9 Wheats: 1930, 1939, 1942, three 1944 one a D, 1946, 1947, and 1957.
25 coins in one hole!
So I figure this was lost in the late 60's early 70's. Pretty darn cool!
