I had a very productive hunt today for about 5 1/2 hours. I found a nice pile of clad, 133 coins with 51 quarters, 31 dimes, 3 nickels, and 50 pennies. Also pulled another Washington quarter 1936, an old silver plated spoon, a toasted 1934 wheat penny, a cheap ear ring, a 1916 Blair County, Pa.

I wasn't sure about the wings until my daughter did some research for me and found out that's what they are. I am one tired boy and should have no trouble sleeping tonight. Happy hunting and keep on swinging that coil. Thanks for looking. I have no idea why almost all the pics posted sideways.

Some haul there,and I have not seen a pair of wings like that before.Plus a nice silver quarter in the mix.
 

The wings are really nice... but I would also have been thrilled with that dog tag or the quarter.

Well done sir!
 

Where the hhhhhh do all you guys find all this stuff amazing hunt for just 5 hours I must live in the wrong area amazing job Thanks for sharing!!!!!!
 

I'd sure be excited to find those wings!
 

This was a backup location I tried after my primary permission was a bust. I had permission to do a turn of the century farmhouse that I lost sleep over wondering how I could carry all the old coins I would find. The owner guaranteed me that it was never detected before, but after about 45 minutes and not even a memorial cent, I gave it up for a lost cause. Then I went to our local high school football field just to find a few clad, and the rest was history. I found the wings and silver quarter out in the grass parking lot where several old homes used to be. Most of the clad was found around concession areas and under the bleachers.
