    Century Day, Silver Again!

    Howdy Folks!
    I am embarked on a more 'normal' hunt yesterday and hit some 5 to 7 locations.
    Started out just after 10am, and didn't stop hunting until around 5:00pm.
    It was my determination to find some gold, but I was disappointed in that particular department. Still, I managed to take 145 coins. Not included in that number were a
    $5 Peso Mexican coin, a 10 cent French Euro, an Australian nickel and two RTD tokens.

    Aside from coins, I found 4 rings, two of them are silver. In addition, I found several
    other cheapie jewelry items. Two post earrings look like strawberries. The posts are bent
    badly, almost flat to the backside on both.

    Oddities for the day was a die, heavy and made of metal, about an inch wide to
    each face of the cube. A live .22 long bullet. A screwdriver bit.

    Take for the day was:
    26 Quarters = $6.50
    19 Nickels = $0.95
    27 Dimes = $2.70
    73 Pennies = $0.73
    Total = $10.88
    Coin Count = 145

    Thanks for Looking,
    Blessings,
    M-Taliesin

    Howdy Salty!
    The knee held up fine. The ankle is killing me now. The bruise is still covering the entire back of my left
    leg all the way from 4 inches above the knee to the ankle. And the bruise has actually been travelling
    down the leg toward the foot. Now that it arrived in the vicinity of the ankle, it is painful as all heck down
    there. Doc said yesterday that gravity is the problem. All that gravity pulling all that blood down into the
    ankle joint! No cautions or restrictions, just advised to keep doing what I am already doing.

    So, I was out for approximately 7 hours on this hunt. If you put in that kind of time, you gotta find
    something! Otherwise, go back to the house and fetch out your machine because if you ain't finding
    anything, evidently it got left behind!

    Blessings,
