Stopped at a city park to do some coin shooting; found it on Google Earth. Looked promising but struck out! Then, decided to check out Google Maps on the phone and found another park. Did well finding coins!

Sunday Morning Coin Shoot Gets More Coins and Charms
Sunday morning went out again for more coin shooting. This round was able to get more clad coins and more non-silver charms. Working one schoolyard that was recently mulched, noticed most coins were found in the older layer of mulch!

50 Coins This Round!
Checked out a city park after work today. Never hunted it before; found a number of clad coins. Started to sprinkle a little (glad for the rain!). So, was calling it a day and packed up to head home. On the way, rain stopped so... stopped at a school yard. Had been there before but had to call it quits after dark. Was able to find more clad coins! Fun stuff!

Working the School Yard
Decided to coin shoot a local school yard. Was a tough go with lots of trash but did manage to get a few clad coins and an earring. Went to another school yard and found a few more clad coins and what looked like a ring. No markings but has some cool designs on it.
