In your honor I put on some thick clothes, it's 53 here now, BRRRR.... And I proceeded to go and dig a handful of clad in a couple of hours today with the E Trac. 19 pennies, 2 dimes, and 2 quarters. I have hunted this spot several times and went right back over it with my X 5 coil and was digging coins next to holes I had already dug in the past. Deepest coin was in the 8 range. Also got a railroad spike, 6 inch long 3/4 bolt and a crumpled can. All three of the junk had a coin in the same hole with them. I also found a spot that is loaded with pennies looks like I'm going to take my Babygirl to for her inaugural Compadre hunt. They are there I waved across them with the ET. :grin:

You are going to have Bruce going into withdrawal shock! lol

We need some warmer weather out this way to melt the snow and have the ground thaw out a bit before we again hit the parks. :bangahead01:

I was prepared to hit the ocean again tomorrow (Wednesday) but it appears it's gonna be mid 20s, max.... add the ocean breeze to that and I think it'll be a little too cold.

Waiting for spring, myself. Got a lead on a great park and been checking it out, then today just summed up another lead I had on another public park. Can't wait for the ground to thaw here!

I've been in deep withdrawls for weeks, just trying to stay busy and cursing at the weather.. What is the point of winter, really.. If we had 53 degree weather I'd be more happy, I'm pretty miserable right now.. Good luck with your hunt..

We have pretty much thawed out here. Some spots where the sun does not hit still froze. Am going out sometime this weekend for awhile.
