When it rains it rains pennies from Heaven!

We must of have had a cloudburst of pennies! We went to a local park and found a penny spill of immense size. We dug 188 memorial pennies, 2 canadians and 1 wheat penny. They were in a 10x10 foot area, must of been a drop of penny rolls we were near the concession area and then hit by the mower and spread. Most were 1 to 2 inches down with a few deeper. We also earlier found a nice sterling silver ring, marked .925 Immediately my wife had eyes for it! If she wants it she can have it Found also a gold...colored stickpin and other clad.

I have been finding a lot of pennies at different depths, my theory is that people with discriminaton are bypassing them for silver readings.

That's a buch of pennies and digging. I am guilty of taking a handfull of pennies and just tossing them You can't buy nothing with them and they aren't even worth a penny.............Damn Zincolns

It was a bit of digging Ron but they were coming out in bunches, my wife helped in the digging and she got 7 out of one hole and it was not unusual to get 5 to 6 at a time. Some were sort of stacked together that is why I thought it might have been rolls that were dropped. It was sort of fun and my wife really got a kick out of it. I was pleased to find another nickle that was number 6 for the week before this week I had only found 2 I guess I am learning how the Ace 250 reads them a little better.

wow that is unusual and a lot of pennies in such a small area. To me that is part of the fun trying to figure out how your finds got to be where you found them. glad you had a good time and thanks for sharing. hh

It could have been a coin hunt for the smaller kids. A company that I worked for years ago had a picnic and they had a coin hunt for the smaller kids they threw out a bunch of pennies and let he kids go at it looking for them.....Matt

I have a Soccer field here that has earned me $41.50 since April of this year. I have found a 14K Religious medalion and a .925 Nike pendant in this same area. This area is about 60' X 40', and has 4 bleachers for the spectators. I got an overload signal on my M6. I found and recovered a penny signal. I always run my V2 pinpointer around the the hole on the surface. In a 2 foot area around this hole I found 22 pennies hidden within the grass on the surface or just under the grass in the sod. There are trees planted just behind the bleachers and I find a lot of clad around them. My Whites 5.3 DD Shooter coil helps me sort out all of the trash before I dig. Soccer is very popular here during the summer and many of the spectators sit on the grass.

Yepper, Same thing but there was no chain with the one I found, believe me, I looked very carefully for it. We have a very large Hispanic population here and these folks like their silver jewelry.
