Thats a lot of diggin, well earned and congrats on the score and finding your oldest coin. Good luck. Mark
Just completed a HUGE challenge. I cleaned out the local elementary school and pulled over 100+ Coins in 3 days!! I also managed to pull my oldest coin to date, a 1929 nickel. I also hit 3 1968 quarters however 2 of them were magnetic which means only 1 of them was .500. Overall a fantastic dig!!
Let me know if you would like the link to my footage on Youtube

Thank you! Now I just gotta find a new place to dig lol
For anyone who thinks metal detecting is easy, my back and knees would have to disagree lol
Hey Mark thanks! Most of the junk was old rusty nails and some crunched cans. I'm using the Ace Garrett 250 how about you? I'm looking to get a new machine soon that is hopefully better. I'm planning on going to a town nearby once the rain clears up and hitting another school!
Hey Matmit, I should mention I am from Canada. In Canada our junk silver stopped being produce in 1967. In 1968 they had a transition year where the silver went from 80% to 50%. I say the magnet test because some 1968 pieces have the 50% silver in them and some do not! Cheers !
Nice!!!! Congrats!!!!
