I spent 6 hours swingin the CZ21 at the scout camp last week and found 197 coins with a face value of $19.26, 137 camp tent pegs, fishing sinkers, 2 rope tensioners, 2 current style neckerchief slides, an NRA pin from 2017, a silver dime, some Canadian coins, a Kennedy half and 2 game piece can tabs.
The Canadian quarter and dime are newer and are magnetic. They were. In a hole with a clad quarter. It made an interesting signal so I had to dig it, when in doubt, dig it out
[
The silver dime is a youngster, 1964. There is not a lot of silver here because the camp is only 40 years old. The Kennedy half is a 1972. Not many Kennedy halves are in circulation around here so it is an unusual find these days.
It was a day with a lot of targets, good gas money and a nice variety of finds. Twice as many tent pegs as usual, about twice the face value of the coins, 2 slides and the coin count was better too. With the silver that makes for a great day.
The water hunt at the local park was ok (I didn’t get skunked), but no good jewelry so not what I expect for this time of year in this park. I spent 3.5 hour swingin the ATPro. I ended up with 22 coins with a face value of $1.70, 2 more toy cars, some junk jewelry, a retainer from a selfie stick, a sinker, a 13mm socket, a bead, an earring back and a debit card. I spotted the red corner of the debit card in about 4 feet of water and scooped it up. I called the company and told them it was found and shredded it as instructed. The lady on the phone seemed very grateful I had called to make the report.
Not my worst hunt, with a nice variety of finds, just a little disappointing in the jewelry department. Thanks for looking, stay safe and may your coil lead you to good things.
