    Another fine evening

    I had the pleasure of getting out for a few hours this evening. I headed to a local school for my 36th hunt at this spot. The weather was perfect and the school yard was quiet and peaceful. I managed 70 coins total including 5 more wheats and a '44 Merc. I'll take that any day!

    Happy hunting...

    That's the great thing about schools, there are always a lot of coins, and they're always being replenished. It's nice that there are still some old ones there to be found too.

    Lifetime totals:
    10 Large Cents, 415 Indian Heads, 2 Two Cent Pieces, 1 Capped Bust Half Dime, 1 Seated Half Dime, 10 Shield Nickels, 68 V Nickels, 124 Buffalo Nickels, 31 War Nickels, 16 Seated Dimes, 131 Barber Dimes, 405 Mercury Dimes, 249 Rosies, 4 Seated Quarters, 18 Barber Quarters, 20 Standing Liberty Quarters, 89 Silver Washingtons, 1 Seated Half, 3 Barber Halves, 16 Walking Liberty Halves

    Thank god for holy pockets! Seems like school kids these days have too much change and they don't take very good care of it. rofl
    That's why it's so hard to find silver. Us old guys took care of our cash back then cuz it bought more. lol

    Congrats on the nice merc and pile-o-clad. Like Aloldstuff said after 36 hunts you're still finding keepers. Good for you!
