Took the Fisher F5 out to a park area to search for coins.
And I did find some....................

In the totlot I dug 2 JFK halfs, from under the plastic tire swing and 2 Mexican dollar coins. The Mexican $5 coin ( too bad it wasn't a USA $5 coin :-\) was off to the side a little bit. I dig manage to get a few coins from the concrete slab--- that is normally our dirt. :shocked04: I think I bent my Lesche...( just kidding.. :tongue:)

Got $8.29 more to add to my clad bucket.....83 USA coins and a nice shiney 2010 Rat token ( Chuck-E-Cheese)

It's starting to get in the high 80's and pretty soon those 100 degree temps :omg: will have us southerners inside, trying to stay cool.

You got a heck of a clad total :shocked04: Nice group of finds and I love the halves :clapping: I hardly ever find them. Too bad about the almost American 5 dollar coin lol I bet them Mexican coins don't get you much in return value >:/. Rat token rofl I love that term.

glad to see you out in about swinging, i don't miss the 100 degree temps in texas and i really don't miss the humidity in houston \:hammer: but at least you can get out just bring a jug of water.

Hate to be the one to say so but the dollar sign on mexican coins means Peso. A peso is a dime - or therabouts. So your 5 dollar one is 50 cents. But the good news is that it's current and can be redeemed. Steve in so az
