    Good to see you're still at it, ppc.

    I've only dug one Kennedy ever, and it was probably around 1992 or so. It was a clad. The reverse of it was painted white.

    When you say "dug", what depths are you usually digging?

    I count anything found while I'm detecting. Most of the woodchip finds are only an inch or so down. Some are on the surface. Using my digger in the dirt most are 3-5 inches but I have dug a dime at 9 inches.
