My dad took me to a garage sale. He told me I had a twenty dollar limit. I said, I'll take that metal detector. The lady said I want thirty. But I only have twenty I told her. Sold she said. Bought the White's PI1000 under water. Two days later my dad took me to a site and said, I'll dig, you metal detect!!! Couple days later I would be dropped off by my self. Dig every thing :laughing7: Then there were no cell phones, see you in 4 hrs. Dads 85 ,Told me to stop by today . Said he had something for me? What I didn't know was he made me frame everything I found! He handed me some micro mounts from Wards Natural Science. Sorry Its Yesterdays finds, but I re found them too day!! Nice to share with people who can appreciate :thumbsup: SENACA rings, beads Triangle points, Melted brass into figures?? This is one of multiples... Not bad for 9 years old...and 52 now, still digging

That's a real cool post up, and can relate to getting the finds. You did really well with that machine for being only 9yrs old.
I was back to my parents home and my mother gave some the points I found when I was a kid, and a box full of some of the first finds I had made. A treasure to me, worthless to all others.
