    Had a cardiac moment....

    Was hunting my neighbor's yard the other day....he and his family had to move out due to storm damage....so I decided to go over and hunt his yard....found lots of clad and then hit a wheat patch and found several wheaties....then I got THE SIGNAL.....dug down and found a Merc....thought it was one from the 40's....nope....was a 1916.....flipped it over and prayed....it has an S....NO D.....oh well I guess it is still a good find.....worth $20....I will take it....see ya later......

    Re: Had a cardiac moment....

    Yes I had permission....and the owner told me I could keep whatever I found.....if I had found a D...he would not have taken the money....I would have offered it to him but I am 99% sure he would have told me to keep it....next time I see him over there working I will show him the Merc and tell him the story......

    trainer:

    Sorry I hadn't noticed you're New York. No wonder you dissed him like that. Pudz is a good ol' Arkansas southerner who respects his neighbors.
    His own home was almost destroyed by a tornado and repaired it all himself.
    His neighbor had to move away temporarily and told Pudz he could detect all
    he wanted to.

    Pudsbrat is a member of a Metal Detecting Club started by my old buddy and
    mentor since the late 60's. All those Mena clubbers were taught the ettique of
    responsible detectorists. 'nuff said
