My 9 year old son recently moved up to my AT pro from his Compadre. He had a great hunt this afternoon, finding his first Silver coin, a '43 Washington quarter. He also found a '52 Rosie, a '56 wheatie, a couple memorial cents, a neat little box and a few other items. He is very excited and so am I!!! Thanks for looking...

That's a pretty big smile on that young mans face. Treasure the memories. My daughter used to detect with me at that age. ( She is now 30 & on her own ). Every now & then she will call me up & say "dad I want to come out & walk around while you detect". I still love every minute of it, & she still gets excited when I dig something nice. Then she takes my detector, & I am the one walking around !
