I enjoy reading your reports. "Here is what I pulled in, and bag # 1 has...". You add a bit of supense, and the reader feels as if he is opening that bag with you to find something unusual. A gold coin, an Indian Head, or a shrunken head.
Seriously your reports make for enjoyable read. Your finds are great
WOW! and all those IH

I cannnot begin to imagine how it must have felt like for on the first bag from that bank to have pulled out 11 indian heads. If it were me i probably wouldnt have stopped seaching that day until all the other bags were done.
