detecting

I spent twenty minutes detecting at lunch today at Hounz Lane Park. I poked around the picnic pavilion for a while, and found that it was very trashy. Lots of signals that were screws and bolts, pull tabs, who knows. I decided to hunt someplace with less stuff popping up, and selected a mulchy hillside across the creek. There was a lot less trash, and I quickly found a quarter and a dime. The coins were nothing special ('96 and '72, respectively), but they surprised me because they were in a spot that would receive relatively light foot traffic.

  1. It's amazing to think when we find coins in out of the way places with little foot traffic of how much money is out there in the world just laying around. I wish I could get a good estimate.
