My totals for the year were 122 silvers, 12 large coppers, 292 wheats, and $283.79 in clad. Oldest silver was a 1755 Reale; oldest copper was a 1730s George II. Oldest US silver was an 1800 Draped Bust Half Dime; oldest US copper was a 1790s Liberty Cap LC.

New type coins for the year were: silver 3 cent piece, 2 cent piece, flying eagle cent, shield nickel, seated dime, and the half dime and liberty cap LC.

For bling, I found 25 silver pieces (78 grams), and 3 gold pieces (13 grams).

I was really happy after only finding 19 silvers last year. I think the E-Trac helped a bit, as well as reading Angel's and everyone else's posts. I hope to be half as lucky next year.

Have a happy new year everyone, and have a great 2011 of swinging. Below is the breakdown if you are interested.
