A new first for me ----a ROLL of quarters

Detected a city park I hadn't been to for several years. Was going along getting the usual change. They had moved some bleachers by a baseball field and got some easy change there. Then got a big hit. Thought it would be a can. Probed down in the chat and pulled up a quarter. Then more and more. Ended up with 40

    Nice score! The president of my local club said he found a roll like that once, all clad. He assumed it had been in a paper wrapper which had long since deteriorated.

    That's nuts! It's like the mint makes the coins and throws them in front of your detector.

    The roll was about 5-6 inches deep. It appeared that one layer of chat had been laid down on top of another layer making it deeper
