    best day so far, looking forward to better

    i took the guys advise from another thread, and obtained a ''scorcher'' coil for the super-trashy areas i'v e been coin shooting. i found 39 coins, totaling $2.99 in 3 hours using the 4.5'' coil, without all the ''pinball gallery'' noise. it positively makes for a better day, as all the BING...
