Went searching for silver #32, but instead came back with $27.00 in clad

Leave-No-Coins-Behind · Oct 20, 2020

Today, I went back to a park that I had not been to in about a year. The city had done some dredging of the park's creek. Some of the dirt was scattered around the park. I had a field day! About $27.00 in clad or like 225 coins.

In the five hours I was there I found numerous coin spills. Several had 6-8 quarters within. One especially good area that I hit was the drained manmade shallow pond that is used as an overflow drainage of rain water. The park was so rich with targets at times that I was able to use just my pinpointer to find coins.

Even though I was not able to break any of my personal best records of specific denominations of clad, I am very happy with my day's results.
It still turned out to being a good day.

I think I will be going back to this park again as there are plenty more areas to hunt.

Thanks for checking out my post!

Thanks Foragist! You said that right. But, thankfully I found two clad mines this week that will required return visits when the day and circumstances are just right.

Thanks GroundSweeper! I am trying to take advantage of the good weather before the ground starts to freeze up. I sure got lucky with this site. But there's got to be a lonely merc in there somewhere.

Thanks WyoTom! The many coin spills sure made things a lot easier and more fun for sure.

Thanks DigginDemOldCoi! I got luck this time. I filled up my coin pouch and had to start dropping coins into my trash section of my pouch too.

Thanks MuddyMo! I was working non-stop. I was taking advantage of the right circumstances.

Thanks LovestheShiny! If I am not finding those darn elusive silvers and will gladly settle on those Mega clad days.

Now that's a lot of clad and digging. Nice going.

Like someone already said... Buy $27 worth of silver. You could probably get a 1oz silver round for that. That is a ton of coins for one hunt!!

Thank you!

Thanks Jamflicker! I went back to the same location today. I have not added it up yet but it appears to be another $20+ kind of a day. Thanks for your kind words.

Thanks porschephille! Clad has been real good to me these past years. I am in silver but with market ETFs and getting close to unloading them soon. Thanks again for your comment.

Thanks diggin4clad! I was lucky again finding this location and returning to it and to hit an area of it that I had not detected before.

Thanks BuscaPlata! I find clad, but you have found some of real McCoy goodies this year too. I appreciate your kind words.

Jak you must have knees of steel man. $27 in clad is quite the haul! I found an undetected park last year but it took me three tries to clean out most of the clad, about 15 bucks each time and I was beat!
Way to clean em up!

Thanks davedude! The key for me is that I squat and don't go down on my knees. I find it fast and efficient this way. Side note, a lot of good guys/clubs out there in Tx that detect. I used to live out down there...lots of old parks and vacant lots.

Way to go! That's as good as free beer!
