Mind Blowing $10,000+ in Total Clad!

Dang! Consider each dollar may contain an average of 10 coins, that's 100,000 plugs!!! What shape are your knees in?!?!

Where are you hunting? Is that from parks?

Most importantly... how long did it take to count all that???

All parks and schools! We have a ton of them out here. I just kept track of all of the coinage on each hunt. Cleaning took a long time. I use a blend of ingredients to make them out out shinny. They are in bank quality. I just roll them up.

That's Absolutely AMAZING! $10K in seven years? You've been working hard. I finally made my five year goal at $5K, but you take the prize. I'll never get to where you're at.
Congratulations! Keep up the good work. $10K is primo return.

Thanks wasatchau! Yeah, it really was hard work but man it's fun digging up them clad. The parks and schools are pretty much drained out. LOL!

Good job on the 5K! Keep going.. you will hit 10k in no time!

Not just time digging, how long did it take to clean and lay out to display ! That is beautiful the way the quarters are lined up on the table. Thanks for sharing.

For years, I would store the clad and then at the end of the year, clean them. I have a rock tumbler. 30 mins per session would clean them pretty good! Almost new looking. Rock salt and Vinegar is all I used to clean.

The lining up the coins was used with a meter stick. Makes it look prettier.. LOL

Congrats on another awesome year digging clad Nox Dude! I wish you did you tube videos, I would love to see you in action stabbing those quarters. I just wrapped up my 4th year in the hobby and just broke 1k in clad. Your dedication and persistence has paid off nicely, BIG Congrats on the 10k milestone!

Thanks Ron 71.. Yeah many hours of hard work. I am fortunate to live in an area that very few if any hunt parks and schools. They are all down on the beach finding the gold rings. lol. The money is nice. I bought all of our furniture, TV's and tables with the cash. I am sure the money train will run out soon. Next year will be different. I will not come close to what I have found over the years. My goal was reached.
 
Thanks EVERYBODY for the nice words... Really means a lot to me to have your comments. It's been a long road for me. Many hours and miles of walking. I am holding up pretty good. My knees are good. I think with all of this hunting, kept me in good shape. We will see what happens next year. I am really thinking that the long run of mega clad will be coming to an end ( I know I say this every year) Schools and parks are taped. No new ground. The Nox 800 found what the ATPro missed. I reached my ultimate goal of $10,000. I will hunt from time to time. Looking to find more gold then quarters.

Not going to have a lay out of quarters like I did the many years. Took much work. I may however do a layout of all of the Jackson's from 2019. LOL Something different.

I will never stop detecting though. I found my thing until I die. Maybe have my Nox next to me in the grave. LOL!!

Hey Guys,

Well, I had to share this. I have been a serious mega clad hunter since 2013. I have finally hit a milestone that is just crazy and few have been there. I have passed the $10,000 in total clad! It took only 7 years to do. A TON of work and dedication to hunting clad. I have mastered the art of it! I have to give credit to where its due to the awesome detectors the ATPro and the Nox800 are! I have proven that these machines are rock solid and recommend anybody out there to get either one of them. So far this year has been great! I am approaching the $1,500 in clad!! I still have a few day left so I have time to hunt my butt off!! I posted a pic from 2013 to 2018.


Happy Hunting Everybody!!

Noxdude... (former ATPro Dude) LOL!!

I cleared $850 one year and thought that was about top-end. $1500? That's insane...
