- Primary Interest:
- Metal Detecting
I was quitting for the day after my 100th coin and a small boy (no less than 6) ran up to me with the greatest enthusiasm displaying a newly purchased metal detector which he received for his birthday. He was swinging away with his parents watching while I reached down in my pouch to intentionally "seed" one of my findings. I told him to try this spot and his detector rang a loud beep. He brushed away the dirt and low and behold he managed his first find. (I wonder what I dropped.)
His face gleamed with excitement as he examined his "treasure find". No matter how old you are, do you remember hitting a memorable keeper? Wish I had my camera at the time to capture the magic. Isn't that the reason why we do what we do? To get that adrenaline rush. Guess I got another one hooked into the hobby. Make room for one more.
Official coin count is 99 but felt I compelled to sacrifice one coin to serve a greater purpose.
Pics for the day:
(1) Loot.
(2) Side view of the booty.
(3) Attractive looking token. Looks very patriotic.
(4) Ring
(5) Ring
(6) Drug Pipe. Some druggy is upset.
(7) Marilyn Monroe look-a-like upskirt. Guess I was in the right spot!
Special appreciation and gratitude to those who have fallen during the war time to keep our country safe and strong.
