One of the towns here in Connecticut puts on an annual celebration consisting of carnival rides, concession stands for food and souvenirs, and at the end of the week caps it off with a night time beer fest. The event is held on the grounds of what was a 1950's era school. The school is no longer in use but the event is still held there every year. Each year after the event is over I hunt the grounds mainly looking for fresh dropped clad coins around where the beer concession was standing. I only had a short time to hunt this morning before heading to work so I was limited to an hour and fifteen minutes of hunt time. I knew where the beer stand had been located and headed right to that area. As expected, I found some fresh dropped clad coins plus some older ones including a 1972 Eisenhower Dollar, my first ever, but the best find of the day was the 1957 Ben Franklin half dollar. Clad finds amounted to $4.93.
