Hi gang,

I tried to post this yesterday but TN wouldn't let me post all the pictures I wanted to post cuz they exceeded the 275kb. I shrunk the pictures down to try it and when it posted the pictures sucked. This morning I had to rescan everything. Unfortunately I had already deleted some of the pic's from my camera so now I don't have them all! :(

So here's the first two pictures. The first of course is the clad (minus the 74 pennies as we all know what memorialls look like). The Kennedy Half was a large surprise as I didn't pay any attention to what the M6 said, I was just digging anything with a good signal. Besides the Half - 16 quarters, 23 dimes, 20 nickels, (1 is a 1964D, I'm getting a little bored with 64's, seems like I find them everytime I go out) 74 pennies and a Mexican $1 coin which I understand is worth about a dime. Total coins 134 not counting the Mexican.

The second pic is the various other stuff (minus the trash as I no longer save it, it goes in the trash on site).

Ya'all have a good day and try to stay cool (Not you Aussie's, you guys stay warm ;D)
Find some good stuff!

Super diggs Prober! Where did you do the plunderin'? Park, school?
Your clad comes out real nice and clean, unlike the ones I dig!
I've not found a half yet, but I'm lookin' all the time....

Keep safe...
 

Here's two more pic's. The second is from the a.m., I hit the beach for a couple hours as it was a lot cooler there; unfortunately the close proximity to the water contributed greatly to the sunburn...ouch! The first pic is a close up of the little religious medal, my spousal unit tells me she looked at similar ones somewhere and they were $30-$40 bucks. Who knows? Can anyone tell me what 417M stands for? It is imprinted on the clasp.

Have a good un. 8)

SUPER FINDS! I like the plane. Keep em coming.
 

Prober,
Congrats. What is that token looking thingy in the bottom row on the first picture?
=MM-
 

Awesome day out there Bob, a lot of nice finds buddy, congrats on that great clad pile and all the other goodies. Keep em coming. You are dooing really well!

By the way .417 stands for 10KT gold and is the European standard marking as Nick mentioned. It's 10/24 in decimal form (10 parts pure gold compared to 24 karat pure). Rounded off to 417 (actually .416666) Wooowhooo congrats buddy!!

Hey, I found the exact little butterfly pendant thingie as you did here on Sunday.
Here's mine cropped out of one of my group pics from Sunday.
;D

Smiles!

wow WTG prober ! very nice on the coin and the gold congrats ;)
 

Great haul Prober!
I used to spend a LOT of time clad hunting and it was very productive...but the silver coins that popped up once in a while gave me a disease that has severely cut into my clad-days!
It's too bad really, because just a few days ago I started tumbling my clad from last year and now it looks like I have enough to either make a car payment or finance a week's vacation next month. It DOES add up! and quickly too if you do it frequently enough. Aside from that, your odds of finding valuable rings and such increases greatly too when hunting in high-percentage clad areas.
MAN...what it MUST have been like THing back in the day when the first decent machines came out! What WE NOW call clad was ALL SILVER!!........
(now where's my time machine??)
 

Prober...

I'm curious..

How many square miles did you cover?

Hehehe!
