Metal Detecting
With my Whites MX5 I found $7.65, in clad at an older brick Florida High School built in 1936, school yard. But a previous school building goes back to 1903......clad was 19 quarters, 23 dimes, 6 nickels and 30 cents(a total of 78 coins). Have found silver dimes & quarters in past hunts here, but not found any silver recently. However I have hunted this school site more than any other site in this area, and average around 100+ clad coins each time because it keeps "giving"......it is the FUN of the HUNT!!:laughing7: Happy Hunting & Good Luck to ALL.

Nice hunting! Did it ever give up some nice jewelry? Grats!
 
Nice hunt. My guess it's been hit lots of times. Hopefully some silver and bling left behind.:icon_thumright:

Yes, several rings in the past near the bleachers in front of the huge football field - and I am sure there are a lot more that I have missed hunting in "high tones" many times because of all the junk in the ground. And you probably noticed that I found 6 nickels on this last hunt - but guess what they were ALL visual targets or coins in with the quarters & dimes when I dug "spills" or laying on top of the ground. Maybe I will do a "gold" hunt next time - but I will need a wheelbarrow to haul away the junk :laughing7: BILL
 
Nice!!! Congrats!!!
 
You nailed it, it's about having fun.
 
Nice hunting. As the saying goes, a "bad" day detecting is always better than a good day at work.
 
Nice amount of cash. Congrats
 
Florida humidity...even in North Florida/South Georgia, it is brutal. Stay hydrated and keep posting...you have a great spot!
 
Nice hunt with a good haul on the coins, you're right, the fun of the hunt, come home several times with nothing worth mentioning but thrilled that I was hunting, congrats & HH
