I'm in between jobs at the moment, so I decided to investigate further
a coin trail that I had found previous running across a park back in June. Found 42(29x1c, 13x2c )coins that day.
Spent 3hrs today following it again, chatting to worms and magpies. Found 66x2cent, 83x1cent, 1x10cent, and a 1985 British 1 penny(not shown)
that I orginally thought was a 2cent. So 151 coins for today, with a total of 193 coins all up so far this 1c2c trail.
Had to give up following the trail as the park grass was too high. I will go back when its been cut, and continue the tracking.
This coin trail just has my interest
For todays hunt, I used the Minelab 10x5" 18.75 kHz DD coil.
FYI: Australian 1c & 2c coins are 97% copper 2.5% zinc 0.5% tin. These coins were withdrawn from circulation in February 1992.

It will be interesting to see what your total from that area is, and how old the oldest find is.
