Haven't been able to get out much in the past five months since I had to sell my detector. :crybaby2: Been watching all the awesome finds come out of this place and after seeing another three Awesome coins come out of the ground today I'd had it! I dropped the laundry basket, put on my coveralls and boots, and grabbed Joe's TDI. I asked him to ground balance it, since I didn't know how, didn't ask for instructions - I just headed :walk: for the fields. I've never used one but I figured I'd just dig everything and I'd learn - I was not ending this year watching. A lot of Iron...but that's what I do best...lol. :laughing9: When everyone else was finished hunting I was able to use the MXT and hunted until dark. Had fun and ended the year with a little lead :hello2: Happy New Year All! :occasion18: Cheers :occasion14:

On the left is what I dug with TDI and the right with the MXT.

Congrats on the unique CW lead. :icon_thumleft:
I bet that log splitter about blew your headphones off.
Good luck to you and Joe in 2012.
You two should start some Riker cases with the relics you dig from your new place.
Lots of history there. :occasion14:

Finding anything is what I'm interested in....if I find a coin, lead or nothing....I'm happy to just get the time to swing. I don't have the time like you do, but will take what I can get. Thanks. HH!

Thanks Dug! I would love to take it all and display in the huge foyer that we have. I would be so nice for anyone to walk in and see what the history of this place holds. Thanks
