Short 2 hour hunt brings lots of coins and yesterdays silver

Got out to a park I have not hunted in a while and there was coins galore! Since the last time I had been to this park they have put in a new play area with a bed of chopped up tires, this makes for easy recovery of targets just kick the rubber out of the way and there it is. After a couple of minutes there a couple of kids asked what I was doing and I explained the process and showed them a couple of coins I had found they thought it was cool and asked if they could watch I said sure as they looked like good kids. With nearly every swing the DeLeon with the cleansweep coil would ring out another target the younger of the two kids a boy would help me recover targets after I kicked the rubber off them he would grab it and hand it to me very enthusiastically. It was probably one of the easiest hunts I have ever had. In no time my pocket was filling with coins in one spot I even uncovered two 1 dollar coins that made me happy.. I had planned on giving them to the kids but when I went to my truck to get a drink and get rid of the trash they were gone. Yesterdays hunt I had a plan I would hunt till I found silver, that is a pretty fair goal for the day as I was not picky silver coins or jewelry. I started out early and hit a sand volleyball court and would you believe near my last pass I found a 1960 Roosevelt dime that was a head scratcher because they have just dumped a whole lot of new sand in there and I have been there a couple of times since with the cleansweep so it had to be a new drop. Boy it was a good thing I found that silver at my first stop because the rest of the was not as good don't get me wrong I did find a pile of coins but no more silver. Anyway here's yesterdays total and today's finds.
Sunday's tally
56 pennies
8 nickels
12 dimes
8 quarters
3 wheat pennies 1944,1954,1956

Monday's finds ( can't really call them digs )
42 pennies
4 nickels
11 dimes
12 quarters

You would do great as a writer Phinbolt,I suck at trying to type a story of my hunt, and the kids recovering your targets is a great idea Hmm, but anyway you killed it as always fantastic coin count, and nice silver Rosie! Congrats, hank
