Excellent harvest, MrPink!
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

tonight was shaping up to be a bit of a dud until I discovered at my favorite ice machine's coin return 7 quarters:   same ice machine as several nights ago. plus I picked two more quarters near a gas pump on my way out of there. $2.25 from one spot. the rest of the route was nearly barren. $2.36 on the night. I only had a zincoln and a dime in my pocket before I found all the quarters. after that I just pedaled home.

according to my shoddy record-keeping, the running total sits around the $320-mark. I have to sit & do some counting to see that my notes are at least close to being accurate.
18 weeks to black friday. the dog days of summer are upon us and the heart of hurricane season is just around the corner.

tonight I picked $2.24 in well-scattered change. running total sits at about $340, almost $200 of that is just coins.  16 weeks to black friday. recent notable roadkill: a 195something LWC and a 2016 italian 2 euro.  recent interesting non-roadkill finds: i picked a 2000 ecuadoran 10 centavos and a 2023 peruvian 10 centimos from two different ice machine coin returns.  the month of july provided just six nights of $1 or more. so far this month I've had two nights of $1+.. actually, both nights were $2+ ($2.18 monday night, plus tonight). so... cruising right along, hoping to make or surpass the $400-mark by black friday. it's certainly possible, though I don't know how probable. I don't think it's unreasonable to think I will attain that. I'm also comfortable with spot gold lingering in the $3280-$3380 range a while longer, though it looks like gold just poked it's head above $3400 again, almost 4am friday. well, whatever... I hope to turn my large, heavy pile of base metal & cash into a tenth of an ounce of gold at the end of november.
