today's findings

Me and my buddy went to the middle school fields today to play some baseball but i brought along the detector just because i found 120 coins there yesterday with my dad. We played baseball for about 20 minutes before my buddy snapped his new baseball bat in two on my fastball. So now i have till the end of the year to get 70 bucks in clad to buy him a new one ...

anyway, the middle school fields have been there since 1906 so i figured there would be alot of old coins in it. UNFORTUNATLY...when they remodeled the middle school last year most of the field had been filled in with dirt...so all the old coins must be about 3-4 feet down...So we went to the older part of the field and began detecting. first signal we got was a quarter, dug down about 6 inches and pulled out a 1964 quarter. Only silver on the day.

total from field today

19 pennies (clad)

5 quarters (4 clad)

5 dimes (clad)

2 nickels (clad)

not bad, but i know there's still alot burried under the fields...

Re: today's findings

My question is exactly the same as Nana's...why would you have to buy him a new bat? He broke it. Maybe it had a flaw. Maybe he hit with the writing forward (I heard that if you do you can break it, don't know how true that is). Either way, I certainly wouldn't think I owed him a bat! I guess that's between you two. Good luck hunting for HIS clad the rest of the year. :P Anyway, I hope you find some gold or silver rings in that field...good luck.

Sounds like it was his dads bat that he and his buddy borrowed.
Nice digs!

I guess i kind of felt guilty because he didn't want to use the bat but i'd forgotten mine at home

Re: today's findings

If there is satisfaction in life other than finding silver, it's breaking a bat with a good hard fastball .

Re: today's findings

You sound like a great kid with very honorable intentions....My take is that, at most, you would offer to pay for half. After all, if he was holding that bat wrong and it broke, it was his fault totally. All you did was throw the ball right.
Anyway, I hope you both keep swinging....Bats and detectors. Both great fun!

Best of luck
