Early morning coin shooting...


This morning I went back to the beach and searched the area I was yesterday. Found some clad coins and some Canadian coins also, one was a 2006 dime I needed for my coin album (I collect American and Canadian coins). I also found a 1956 Wheat cent, been a couple of months since I found one of those. After here I called it a day for I had several errands to run.

Car trouble so hunted back yard...

Got up early to go to the beach for some metal detecting, noticed my husbands car was still in the drive and mine was gone (that meant his car wasn't starting, again). So, I decided to hunt the back yard haven't done for awhile. Think I did pretty good, got my first religous metal (silver says Malco Sterling on the back) came out of the ground clean and an old pin with a picture/print of young girl (picture is done in the stipple technique). and some coins 2 are wheats and the dime 1965 I missed by one year for silver. Plan on hitting the beach tomorrow for sure...

Coin Shooting/treasure hunting: .17 cents; 1 dime (1965), 7 pennies (1940, 1944 wheats, (2) 1976's, 1990, (2) 1991's).
coin shooting running total: $30.14
