Default my total

Got all my coins and traded it to the bank for $74 dollars. It took me about 6 to 7 good hunts to get all this clad. I did go to two schools and a couple of sand parks. All in all I think it is pretty good. Have not found any major jewlery or old coins but I will keep trying.
Todayis a half day at a different school that I work in and am going to ask the principal if I can detect. I will let you guys know the outcome.

Default yes

those schools and sand parks can create some good money. With beaches you get less coins but if lady luck is with you, you might find a nice ring. one of the schools that I went to was a real big sandlot and there were quarters after quarters there. Going to try to go back but the administration changed. Anyways I think I got the bulk of it but I'm sure there is more in there. Actually I am at my school now and I am about to ask to detect right this moment. Wish me luck.
