Money Tree

[p2c]

A weekend full of clad. With the exception of 86 cents, all the coins came from a 15 square foot area under a tree in a forest preserve (you can make your own judgments, I'll only say maybe money does grow on trees). Weekend totals:

1 sacagawea dollar
42 quarters
28 dimes
22 nickels
60 cents

for a grand total of $16 in clad, not bad for only a little over 3.5 hours of fun.

Funny thing about that 15 sq foot area -- there are many more signals, but I think I need to give the ground there a rest. It is funny also b/c when I first started there, my f-70 registered highest possible ground mineralization -- no doubt due to all those signals. Now the ground reads low mineralization after my removal of all those goodies.

You should see if you can get a sprout off of that tree and plant it in your yard.
Congrats on finding one of the few money tree that there are.I think I have one in
my yard also because my son think money grows on trees.

Very nice finds, p2c! Those spills are great fun to find - and to dig.

Last year I found my own money tree. See it here: http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,154821.msg1118730.html#msg1118730

I'm sad to say that they cut my money tree down later in the year. However, I did go back there this year, and found three more wheats. Gotta love those money trees!!!

Good luck and HH,

Sounds like your tree was used more than once for napping! Great job on the clad!

WE GROW MONEY TREES HERE TO BUT THEY DIE. ONLY THING WE FIND AFTER THE TREE IS GONE IS THE SHOVEL.
NICE FINDS CONGRATS.

You did not find any "foil wrappers" under your money tree, did you?

As frightening as this may be, I have to agree with plehbah's question...

Were any foil wrappers found? This sounds like a hanky panky spot to me...

Either way, great finds and i DO hope it IS a money tree...
