Seeded Hunt Finds - List of coins

[N.J.THer]

My detecting club had our closed club beach hunt this past Sunday. The $10 entry fee got you one hell of a lunch, a seeded beach hunt and a few games/raffles.

Here are my coins from the beach hunt:

1889 O Morgan Silver Dollar
1849 O Seated Half Dime
1918 Walking Liberty Half Dollar
1963 Franklin Half Dollar
1969 Kennedy Half Dollar
1893 Columbian Exposition Half Dollar
1845 and 1848 Large Cents
1905 O Barber Quarter
1941, 1958, 1962 and 3 1963 Washington Quarters
1863? Three Cent Trime (date pretty worn - nickel not silver)
1875 and 2 1889 Seated Dimes
1934, 1941 and 1943 Mercury Dimes
1951, 1961, 2 1963 and 1964 Roosevelt Dimes
1867 Shield Nickel
No Date V Nickel
1874 and 1899 Indian Head Pennies

This is the only club I'm a member of where the club actually pays for itself through out the year.

that's an amazing assortment.
don't know how that could be sustainable at $10 a head.
you DID leave some for the rest of 'em, didn't you?
sounds like a great club!

No kidding! Either you stomped the others, or your club is VERY generous with their seeding!
I would drop $10 for a day like that anytime!

The club is very generous....there were a few gold coins given out but I did not win any. We hold raffles that are open to the general public to raise funds for the club which has a pretty health bank account and we buy coins through out the year when we can get a good deal.

Anyone in the NJ area should try our October open beach hunt....you can easily make back your entry fee in coins and prizes. Usually give away a few detectors and gold coins at that hunt. We have had people come down from Canada and up from Florida there is even a nice guy that comes up every year from NC.

Most states do not allow this, which forces you to make ends meet with dues. I'm suprised NJ having Atlantic city hasn't regulated you so much that you cant make money.

Thanks Tank

I don't go out of my way to do seeded hunts but it is nice to have a day out with the other club members. Good food and good company plus you walk away with some silver in your pocket.

You should check your state for how they handle nonprofit organizations. There is usually a permit that you can buy to hold raffles and it is usually not too much. Same thing the churches do to have 50/50s and bingo.
