Default Girlfriend finds first silver coin

Went to the local park for a couple of hours with the girlfriend to try and find some more silver. Well I didn't find any but my girlfriend managed to pull a nice 1943 quarter from the ground. This was her first silver find and she was excited and I excited for her. We managed to find just under $5.00 in clads as well and a pouch full of scrap. Yesterday we went to Paradise beach for some fun in the sun under the watchful eye of a bald eagle. My gf sun tanned and I detected. I had found several silver coins there so I thought I would take the ACE 250 to see if I had missed anything. The area is grown up as it gets used very little these days so it was difficult to swing the coil. I managed to find 45 coins that I had missed before. They included 3 silver quarters, a 50,59 and 65, 6 silver dimes, 2x43,49,56,63 and 65, 8 wheat cents, 30D,42D,46D,50D,53,53D,54D and a 55D, a 1927 George V penny,11 George VI pennies from 1941 to 1952 and 16 YQH pennies from 53 to 64. Thanks for looking and HH everyone
