Default A "dime in the rough...milestone

Got out for a couple hours today. I'll rub in the weather for now, and take my lumps from everyone south in a few months when I'm envious of your detecting. It was 72 degrees and quite cloudy, not a drop of sweat shed, along the path of an amazing 21 dimes! Also dug were 27 pennies, 1 a 1941 wheatie, and just 1 quarter. Total of 49 coins, so I reached a milestone, I never comprehended when I started:

1500 COINS!!!!!!

Good for now, but when its 72 Degree in the middle of the winter (Here that is). We in the south will rub it in back at ya. Great finds that is alot of dimes. WTG

I don't think it has been below 100 degrees in daytime in three weeks. Being a northener transplant. I am dying.
