Nice finds. I would suggest you hit that area hard, again. The most I found in one day were 4 silver coins. Keep it up.

I live in Greensboro now, but I once worked with a guy named Bob from New Brighton Pa...or maybe it was Beaver...it's been years. He was a Coinshooter, and was working for a time at Sears in the Beaver Valley Mall...in the service department. You wouldn't happen to be the same fellow would you? Maybe just wishful thinking on my part, but it'd be nice to bump into him and Neil again.

I am Bob and I am from New Brighton, but I never worked at Sears. I work construction as a pipefitter / welder.

I remember his last name now....it's Odell. Imagine, if you will....being the 1st guy with the "brass" to hunt the parks in Beaver Pa. That was Bob back in the 70s. All of the locals were afraid to do it....but he figured all they could do was throw him out. Well, they didn't throw him out, and he found the place absolutely cluttered with great old coins...all the way back into the bust coins. I remember him saying it was very dificult at first because there were so many coins that it was sometimes hard to pinpoint a signal. I saw a couple of the capped bust halves he took from there when I worked at Sears in the early 80s.
