You got to love those Canadian 1 Dollar and 2 Dollar coins , they sure add up fast ( in Canada we have no 1 dollar bills or 2 Dollar bills ! )

Man, that is just awesome!
Does anyone have any pointers in terms of cleaning up on clad? Locations which produce best, ways/strategies to maximize finds in minimum time, etc. While I'm pretty inexperienced, a good 3-4 hour hunt for me (when hunting clad) is 75 cents to $1.25, something like that. Can anyone give any tips as to what they consider the best ways to increase your finds per hour, or whatever?

Karl,
Thanks for the tips. I have begun finding a few spots (the types of which are included in your extensive list above), which, combined with gaining more experience, is helping me to do a bit better. A 3-4 hour hunt now seems to result in a couple of dollars, and maybe a occasional ring or earring. A seven hour hunt at a local park last week got me well over $3 in clad, and a nice sterling silver ring. There are times when I am getting a dollar or even two in an hour, but then I hit patches of dirt where I find virtually nothing for an hour. I'm sure I'll learn with time which sections of an area are more likely to produce. Meanwhile, silver coins remain elusive for me, but I think many of my spots have likely been well-hunted before. I thought the battle would be won by finding spots to hunt; turns out, finding spots that HAVE NOT been well-hunted/cleaned out in the past might be the bigger challenge!
