finds per outing with your detector

   I have been metal detecting for about a year , while I have some great finds , looking back on my trips that usually last about an hour and a half , I find that I average about $1.00 in clad coins per trip.
   I am curious after looking back through this fun year how it measures up to everyone else's experience. Maybe I search the wrong places or need more experience.
   I have found silver , a 1928 standing liberty quarter , a pair of 3 cent trimes in a "kiddie cache" , a 1957 quarter and even a gold class ring but those are understandably rare exceptions.
  Some of the posts on the finds boards have me feeling a little inferior , but then I have only posted the "homerun finds"....
   Thank you for your input , i will keep swinging even though I'll have to stop when the ground freezes soon.

If I kept count I would cry!!!!   I think I'm less than $3 total and I got my my detector last Christmas. I have a LOT of trash that I've found but sooner are later I will be able to find my first old coin or really lucky to find anything silver or gold.
