What are the odds?

[West Jersey Detecting]

I got out for about an hour on friday to hit a new spot on the other side of the river. It was difficult detecting conditions with very high mineralization and I was only able to detect a quarter down to about 5 inches. I managed to pull an old plated fork and 1925 Wheatie at about an inch. About 20 minutes and two miles later I stopped into Dunkin Donuts for a cup of Joe, and got another1925 Wheatie in my pocket change.

With 2 feet of snow on the ground this may do it for 2009. Not the way I was hoping to end the year, but the Wheatie tells me there may be some oldies to be found. Next time I will have to try my 4x6DD at the site.

Don't suppose you were also given an old plated fork to stir your coffee with? If so, I calculated the odds for that to happen... they are 1,496,984,454,075,053-1

I didn't even give the old plated fork I was handed at DD a second thought!

Pretty cool but if you ever get a Chain Cent in your pocket change then go detecting until you turn blue.
