In an effort to stymie the winter doldrums, TH is allowing me to hold a simple contest. So here's how it is going to work;

I have selected a number between 1 - 300 and the first person to guess that number wins a free book, Florida's East Coast Gold & How You Can Find It. (Seeker41 is keeper of the selected number.)

Rules: Only one guess per person per day. And, you must also include either a picture of a find, your equipment, or a word or two of treasure hunting wisdom. Should be fun and entertaining and might help to keep hunters inspired through these winter months. :thumbsup:

My guess is 241. Words of wisdom....no matter when or where you travel....alway bring a back-up detector and a back-up scoop.

An inch of sand movement can be the difference between finding this and missing it. I checked the same hole within 2 hours....2nd time was a charm.
