This is my personal best so far taken out of a hick town park in about 3 1/2 hours. I have not submitted anything yet, because there is so much competion with some very nice finds here.

1 Wheat penny, 2 medallions, 7 quarters, 20 nickels, 31 dimes and 117 pennies = $8.02 + 1 wheat.

Is that a pressed elongated penny? I've noticed a few of those on this board & some of them are fairly collectible. Some of the World's Fair pennies go for $10 to $25 . Most of them will bring a buck but still, that's not bad for a penny!
 
This is great...I love it...someone else with a dfx kicking A-s!
 
Cruisin, I don't know if it's a pressed penny or not, however it did read like one.

DFX, I just got the DFX last month and cannot say enough about it. It gets better each time I use it.
 
I am bringin this post back to the top...it was a hell of a hunt and deserves more responses! Someone finds a couple coins they get more responses than this! ???
 
I am back to the grind. 13 hour days for the next 5 days. Overtime has been killing us. So I get out as much and when I can. It won't be until next week now, so I have to admire everyone elses for a few days.
 
Great pile of coins, I have found a flttened penny from the Como Zoo before. Finding it was a treat when you are expecting a penny to pop out of the plug. Congrat's on the nice dig's. HH

Hey no competition...I am just trying to reach my goal..but this is a great post...seeing another dfx user having success...nice spread of coins...inspiring... :)
 
Yes thats a pressed penny.My Uncle bought 2 of those penny impression machines years ago.They are sitting in his basement.I should find out what type of impressions they make. Cool finds. HB
 
;D very nice lot of coins
 
Great pile of coins! Love the pressed bear coin. Keep digging!

Very imperssive pile of coins for the hours searched. It's nice when you find places like that. The elongated pennies are cool too. Keep em coming!
 
Thanks for all of the replies, yes I hit it just right and I am not going to compete DFX Gregg, as he has a personal goal to achieve and needs his full concentration. I give him credit on his goal and hope to hear of his success. I like to coin shoot 1 day and throw a little relic hunt in there from time to time. Some days I have plenty to clean up and others, well I just get clean myself up, but thats hunting.

Good luck to all and happy hunting.

DFX Gregg - I hope you achieve your goal and anyone else out there that have set goals. For now I will stick with a little of this and that.
