I did it..100 coins today..1 silver..first wheatie YAY

[bootybay]

I hit the bar again... I am dumbfounded... I got exactly 100 coins..stopped as my back was killing me and was starving... I have no clue what I have found other then a parkway token and some mickey mouse type token.. the coins were so dang dirty that right now they are all in the tumber getting a bath...I dont know if I have silver ( will be shocked if so) or if I have a wheatie ( havent found one yet) so once the bath is done..I will post em.... but I am proud of my sorry ole self....I did it..made one goal...100 coins in one day..it only took me 4 hrs.... but I had a ball....and I used only my M6.... am pleased even if it all turns out to be regular clad...soon to be the clad queen.... but sooner or later I will get the silver coins and other goodies that you all find.... so stay tuned for my pictures after their bath...
dig it.. dig it..

rae

Girl you better stay out of those bars............sounds like it killing you LOL HAHHHA Hey great day post us a picture or two. And don't forget the Micky Mouse stuff........Great hunt ..Had a feeling you were gonna be good at this !!

Great hunt! Sounds like you had a reason to be worn out? That is a bunch of digging.

Did you tumble the pennies and other clad together? I have heard not to put pennies in with other clad? Not sure though, Beale.

Jumping Jupitors.....You are a Nut!!,,,,Just like the rest of us!!!...So you got the bug and you will be starving even worse when all you do is MD and call in to work saying your sick.......cause you want to go back out just to put your back out again......Isn't life Great! Smile! It just gets worse! I hope you have the best of luck and am honored the Queen of Pirates!(PS...I am a minelab user just on whites forum cause my brother bought a M-6 trying to pick up on hints for him)....but metaldetecting is metaldetecting no matter what you got for a machine. Wish you well and all newbies the best of luck.... now go out and kick some BUTT!

as promised will post the pix soon as I can once they come out of the tumbler, am dying to see the dates on em...would be awesome if there was at least one wheatie in it...

 

[bootybay]

Now I am more excited..I got my first wheatie..but its in such bad shape I can't see the date..beat up from the stones..and I got one silver roosevelt..its either 1940 or 1946 both coins are kinda beat up from the rocks..... I AM SYKED NOW

i have a super magnifying glass as it is... its still unreadable.. some coins are not perfect when found as you well know..and yes, I insist on finding silver coins... but I am also half blind..but on the other hand, I can make kick a$$ wire wrapped to perfection jewelry long as I have my magnifying glass...

Congratulations Bootybay. I've only had 1 100 coin day.It was last summer.I hunted a school.It was a 103 degrees.Too busy digging to eat or drink.Bill

Woo Hoo! Bootybay, your on a roll now, That M6 is a coin getter for sure, your gonna love it...HH Congrats...Rich

Nice Haul ,Congrats on the Silver and wheatie. You don't want to put your Silver ,or anything else that you don't want to beat up in the tumbler. The silver just needs a rinse with soap and tap water. The older copper coins can be put in a small jar with olive oil after rinsing, Sometimes it helps to bring outthe details better.......Good Job! Hh...
