    Today is my birthday. I needed to find 11 more coins to reach the 2,000 mark for the year in coins. I started detecting in March with a second hand 305 and stepped up to the 705 in May. I've recovered a handful of silver and wheaties to spice up the pot. After 5 months of detecting, I'm still...

    90 clads and 2 rings

    A fun day today. My Minelab 305 didn't want to leave any clad in the ground. I found my first nickel ( 3 in fact). Two rings were icing on the cake. Fun times. First time I ever checked the kiddie play ground. Those slides like to dislodge pocket change.
