This weekend was my 5 month anniversary metal detecting.
I started the week at 158 quarters and though I really wanted to hit 200, I didn't think it would happen, especially since I had to go into work for several hours today.
I am happy to say that thanks to a school yard that seems to have forgotten about for a while, I was able to hit my goal and I broke my record for quarters found in one day!!!
My Xterra 705 found quarter #200 (pictured), and two more after that for a daily total of 22.
I also found my third wheatie (1945), such as it is, in a local park.
My other two wheaties I found in tot lots and they were lost change, so I'm pleased that I finally dug one, though I thought it was going to be a dime and was quite disappointed until I got it home and realized what it was.
I'm tired, but happy.
Thanks for looking,
Amanda
