Smile Went Out Today - 4 Hours - 86 Coins
I went to a local park that was established in the early 1970s and perhaps too new for the old treasures. I worked an area about 25 feet by 40 feet and found mostly coins than the usual metal trash. Total of 86 coins = 8 quarters, 16 dimes, 10 nickels and 52 pennies. There is a lot more area to cover on the next outing.

Default good hunt
Wow, that hunt was a real knee bender, enough for a good tumbler load.
Great nickel count also!

Hi mini swinger and campnagle . . .

I think I learned more about my physical condition, including the real knee bender hunt, than about gettting to know my MD

Thumbs up
Great job on all the coins, you did well, I like the nickel totals. You don't normally see that many found in outing. Hopefully you'll find some gold soon if you keep on digging those signals.

Thanks for all the nice replies !!!

It is always nice to discover an area to swing in that has been untouched by an MD for all those years. I will be going out to the same place tomorrow and hopefully I will be lucky as well.
