Hello,
I thought I'd post a summary of my year 2005 as well. All of these are dug between June and December.
Euro coins: 323 coins, $160 ($0.49 per coin)
Markka coins: 697 coins, $58 ($0.08 per coin), although this includes a number of obsolete coins, value of coins that can still be cashed in today is probably around $55
Some wild colors here...
Foreign coins (pre-Euro): ca 200 coins, countries at least including (too lazy to check complete list
):
* Sweden (~150 coins)
* Norway
* Denmark
* Germany
* Netherlands
* Greece
* Austria
* Switzerland
* UK
* USA
* Turkey
* Japan
* Botswana
* Bosnia-Herzegovina
* Russia (and USSR)
* Estonia
* France
Best coin of the year: 1593 Swedish Half Öre (219/1000 Silver), a quite rare one-year type
Jewelry and relics
A silver pocket watch, some rings (incl 1 gold), a few old buttons etc
Keys: 36
Other:
Snake bites: 0
Ground wasp nests stepped on: 0
Nasty falls (w/ detector): 0
Mosquito bites: >>1,000
Beautiful sunrises and sunsets: Numerous
Happy hunting and all the best for 2006!!

Good key collection!

(great stats on the snakes and wasps... I hit a wasp nest a little over a year
ago and I must have looked like I was a mad, break dancin' detectorist!)
Hope 2006 is a great one for you...
