    Hello everyone,
    On Saturday I did another 6 hour Metal Detecting hunt at Brooklyn's Fort Greene Park.
    The park just keeps producing!!!

    This time it was between 1PM and 7PM

    My second 2 CENTS (corroded) - I will try to clean it up :confused:

    Last week my old Garrett Pinpointer conked out on me. I used my new NOKTA Accupoint Pinpointer for the first time. It connects to my headphones via Bluetooth!

    Hopefully your family and friends survived "Ernesto"
    without much incidence.

    Yes! My family and friends in Puerto Rico are all doing fine. Ernesto was just a tropical storm when it hit PR. Some damaged vegetation and the lights went out for a day or two. My wife and I are heading back in about 3 weeks to start renovations on our family home. I just hope that there are no other crazy weather issues from now until then!

    Thanks for inquiring :happy:

    Glad to hear your family is doing well from the tropical storm. Another good haul but that glass marble must have metal in it. LOL.

    Hehe.. My 3rd marble found in 3 outings. I usually eyeball them or they pop out of the dirt when searching for the coins :watching:

    Paddy,
    I would bet that finding a 2¢ piece metal detecting is damn near as rare as finding a gold coin...or, at the very least, a gold ring. (You'd probably prefer the gold) However, In all my years of detecting and being a member of one of Houston's largest MD clubs I never once heard of anyone digging a 2-center,
    much less finding 2 of them!
    Kudos,
    J.T.
