Cashed My Equinox Clad In At Coinstar

[Norm S]

I cashed in my clad at coinstar this afternoon. I have had my 800 for 6 weeks and my 600 for about 3 weeks. 

I cashed in at coinstar for a total of $172.66.. I had quit counting what I had after I knew I had almost $100 but never dreamed I had as much as I had. 

I have to admit I hit a cpl awesome parks and even though they had been hunted recently I cleaned up. I actually believe there is more at the one park but in an area I gridded I only found about $3 in two hours. In an area the other guy missed I found $9 in clad in a 30' x 30' area bordered by a sidewalk. 

I also hunted 3 other areas that I had hit really hard with both my Etrac and V3i. One soccer field that I took over $100 out of the past cpl of years I must have really cleaned it out because I found 3 cents. Another area I had hit hard with the Etrac before i got the Equinox. That area I found 40 cents. The last area which was a park that is hunted all the time I found 70 cents in 3 hours.

I hunted an old soccer field yesterday and everything was deep.I had been there with my Etrac and only found a cpl of dimes and a nickel. Everything I found was 8" or more with the exception of a cpl surface pennies. I pulled out $3.48 in about 2 hours.. I have a cpl more places on my radar as well. I like hunting parks that others have hunted because it makes me feel the Equinox is superior to other detectors but in reality I think it the person that was detecting didn't know his detector very well.

I also have 2 silver rings and a silver pendent.

Good one Norm thats a good result mate. I have a coffee bottle I am trying to fill, I just cheated and counted it to see how much is there so far $163. We are lucky here in Australia with or 1 and 2 dollar coins they add up pretty quick, once again well done mate.

Out of all that clad, I didn't fine one silver coin

When you use Coinstar you get full value if you get Amazon Gift receipts.  When you get cash it shrinks by 10%.

Love getting those goldies in the parks~~

• I never thought about Amazon gift receipts..  I have an Amazon credit card and the points add of fast. I may get an Amazon Gift receipt next time

I know I am always going to buy something from Amazon eventually, so I just upload the Amazon cash to my account after a coinstar run.  Great tip by Mitchel.  It's second nature for me now so I forget to mention it to folks.  No need to take the 10% coinstar cash hit.

I don't mind paying them to take my dirty money...I did learn to give it a quick wash or the coin machine gets cranky-and so does the store manager...

EXCELLENT, Norm!  That's a GREAT clad haul!

You may not have gotten any silver coins, BUT -- you said you are digging many coins over 8" deep, which in many areas is MORE than deep enough to nab silver -- even OLD silver.  If you get on the right site, the silver will come.  You clearly are digging deep enough, with the Equinox, to get there...
