For many years, the standard price of a good cigar was 12?? or "two for a quarter". A cheaper cigar (stogie) was 5?. So for 50? you could really stink up the place! John in ID

Hi Jon, I do not have a detector yet, but the good news is that one is on the way to me ;D I cannot wait for it to come to get started. This has been a long passion of mine, in fact probably next year the wife and I are going to a place to learn gold panning which should also be fun...... I think it is the mystery of treasure hunting that attracts me ::)

God bless
Peter
