Another year of finding coins EVERY DAY! Pretty amazing. There were plenty of interesting
tales – funny ones, mind-boggling ones, and even some nail-biting ones.
Today (New Year’s Eve) there were
impressive fireworks and an impressive 73 coins found (60P, 5N, 7D, 1Q). What a Grand Finale for 2016!

Finding daily coins this year was
not always an easy thing to do. When Doc
and I travelled to Panama on a tour bus with 40 other people, it was a real
challenge to find coins. My broken foot in
August and subsequent surgery made penny finding (and everything else) a bit
more difficult. For three months I was not
allowed to drive. Thankfully each day
Doc would gallantly make sure I got out of the house to find the requisite
coins. North Dakota in September was quite sparsely populated – with both
people and coins! And the snow in
Tehachapi made driving into town impossible with our car.

Many of you are “left brained” (logical engineering
types) and would prefer to see the numbers versus reading the cutsie stories. So here is the data for you:
Currently we are at 611 Consecutive Days of Coin Finding
U.S. Coins in 2016: 2185 pennies +
167 nickels + 448 dimes + 155 quarters = 2955 Total plus some paper money for a total
value of $130.73
Foreign Coins: 29
Norman Pennies (2015D): 195
Hits for the Cycle (P+N+D+Q in one
day): 38

For you “right brained” persons – it was a good year and many coins were
found! LOL

The Angels were there EACH DAY for us in 2016 in all sorts of
challenging situations. They are there
for YOU as well.
