I keep a running total of finds each year on my profile. There have been many days when I went looking for a Zincoln because my penny total was an unbelievable one like 222, lol. I guess we can forego the pics...this time. Lol.

I despise clad because it gets in the way of the good stuff, but on the other hand it pays for new batteries and sometimes a few gallons of gas. There is an area of bay near me that people must use as a wishing well or something similar because it's always full of clad. I'm talking so much clad that at low tide you can just simply scoop up shovels of sand into a sifter and there will be at least $0.50-$1.00 in clad change each time. I once brought home $27 in change from just one trip, didn't even use the detector - couldn't use it even if I wanted to - because the sand there literally beeps no matter where you stand. I like this spot for its free clad but there is never anything else of value there so I don't usually go more than once a month just to collect what I know will be there. The best stuff like the gold and silver can only be found on Long Island's barrier islands where there are plenty of careless jewelry flaunting swimmers. 8-)

Good, but actually, I was kinda going for "No pics, it never happened". I was hoping I could. ;) LOL

That's crazy hahaha!
 

sounds like a typical day for me.... if I'm lucky enough to find that much
 

I think I still hold the title for low score for a days hunt, a few years back, on the beach I got 1/2 a corroded zinc (not even a whole one!) and a hand full of pop tops! Go Me! ....not! Lol! Since that day it's all been looking up! Lol!
The other day I found a plastic play nickel laying on the ground, thought it was real till I picked it up!

As long as you have a spare key your good!

As the wise one said, "patience grasshopper it will come to you"

I celebrate your finds! Proves the detector is working and so are you!

If that doesn't make you a Titleholder at least your a strong contender. :laughing7:

I have to agree with WAHTIFIND as in: no pictures, it never happened. It's his story and he's sticking to it.
