We hit up an old civic building next to my neighborhood this evening and I pulled a couple of bucks of clad from the ground.

As I was digging my 4 year old son picked up my MD and started scanning around the area. He hit a real hard reading and I let him dig it (2") he then pulled out his first find. A 1971 Quarter -

Hopefully I can keep the stoke with him for years to come -

He's a natural. It's really nice that the little ones get excited when they finds such items. I bet he'll be your hunting buddy from now on. GL and HH

hea Shaw you need to get your Son his own Ace 150 & a digging tool.
Garrett makes a shorter rod for the kids if i remember correctly, then
you'll have a hunting buddy to go w/ you on a hunt for the GOODIES.
But you better look out he might out do ya.

He sure looks proud of that find.

He's got that look in his eyes, so now you know what to get him for Christmas!
