Smile front yard jackpot

Thought I would try MD my front yard in the dirt area. And glad I did. Found a nice little pocket of change, 52 pennies, 4 nicholes, 12 dimes and 2 quarters, all in a hole about 3 inches deep and 4 inches wide.

Holy crap.
That is one heck of a pocket spill.
It gotta be a record of some kind.
