Darn tootin it is. Some of you guys are just plain addicted. Ya'll must have strong backs or youngsters, or nuts.
I'm guilty of being envious.
 

Truth, you have hurt my feelings. I actually thought I was doing g pretty good for the year. Patting myself on the back.
As of today, for 2017:
640 coins (69% pennies) = $26.78

Double wow wow! How long did it take to find that many coins? Had to be over 10,000, I at least suspect.

You are certainly a masterful coin finder.

I did that in 5 months. Not sure how many coins it was but it was a lot. It took me a couple hours just separating the quarters from the rest. I hunt almost everyday. I'm obsessed with this hobby.

Looks like my 1st year, I love old coins, but I have no problem digging clad to fund upgrades and other hobby related necessities.

I separate after every time I clean them in the tumbler and put them in plastic coffee containers.

P = Pennies
J= Junk Jewelry

T = Toys
N = Nickels
 

That is a "ton" of quarters, congratulations! :occasion14:
 

I turn my clad into silver bars. photo-334.JPG its a great feeling when they come in the mail !! Take your clad and sort it then deposit it and then buy a bar or bars online. Dealers choice are usally the cheapest and closest to spot price.
 

photo-347.JPG 2 rolls for 1 bar with change left over. I mix those badly corroded ones into the rolls. Learned this trick off t-net from reading other peoples posts. Started changing my correded clad for silver since I joined treasurenet. Slowly starting to stack bars.
