Its nice to have a presumed honeyhole in your back pocket, as this month, while there have been quite a few silvers, has seemed slow, and a proven honeyhole is a nice slump breaker and morale booster.<\/p>\n
But the site gave up only two dimes, which certainly isn’t bad; we’ll take ’em, but all things must pass.<\/p>\n
Gets me thinking about the non-sustainability of this hobby again.\u00a0 With hunting and fishing, it always regenerates.\u00a0 People are always planting letterboxes.\u00a0 Even orienteering people are always setting new courses (but rarely coming up with new, interesting venues, and letting quality decline while charging more for the lessened experience).<\/p>\n
But silvers don’t regenerate.\u00a0 Hunted to extinction is hunted to extinction.\u00a0 Will bigger, deeper machines come along and save the day?\u00a0 Won’t help much in this area, as mineralization and bedrock limit the effective depth coins can be found. Does the “freeze\/thaw” cycle push coins around as some claim?\u00a0 I don’t think so; sounds pretty wacky, but even so, there can’t be a huge source of sustainability from that.\u00a0 Feeling a bit sad about it today.<\/p>\n
(Also yesterday pulled a dime from an urban site that I never thought had much potential, but wanted to check it out. Looks like someone beat me to the site by a day; saw their plugs everywhere.\u00a0 Wonder what they found?).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
