well, I hit that closed bar again... and came home with 100 coins... all I think are regular clad, but right now they are in the rock tumbler, to get the yuck off em... either way, I did it...I finally found 100 coins in one day... this is a major accomplishment for me..and I feel super great about it...even thou it seems to be normal clad from what I can see so far..oh there is some mickey mouse token, dated 1982 I think it is... so I am happy... and still doing research on those old sites...

atta girl rae... sheez if this keeps up I will have to change my name to the clad queen

picture to follow after they tumble for a bit, filthy dirty they are... they turned the colors of the rocks in the parking lot...

Congrats on the 100 coin day! Are you sure that's a Mickey Mouse token and not the famed Chuck E. Cheese token (a must have for every detectorist!). ;D ;D

WTG "No more Bootybay" on the 100. Those drunks pulling keys out of their pockets had to drop more. Go get it. Write a book for the ladies about your new diet plan. ;D

For the gold hit the beaches and for the old silver try the older parks or private property. NJ is full of old parks just check out the vintage maps or your local historical society. Sanborn Maps has some good maps on-line you can check out.
