On Saturday morning I spent three hours hunting a school playground. In that time, I dug 72 coins with a face value of $9.60. No silver found but at least the clad is piling up and will be spent on silver at the end of the year.
That's one heckuva pace, one coin every 2.5 minutes. wtg

I think that you should ask the detector Gods for a raise!

I just love it when you find a spot that hasn’t been detected for a long while. Picking up clad for a few hours is great fun.

Thanks Susan, I never complain about digging up a lot of clad because it's very spendable. I cash it in at year's end and use it to buy coins or silver for my collection.
