2006 End of the Year Spectacular! Woooooooo!!!

[goldencoin]

Hello everyone, for those who don't know, I live in the thumb of Michigan and I'm 15. There isn't that many parks and I'm still learning how to relic hunt real good. This is 4X better than my best season ever, so I'm really happy. Even if you don't think there all that great, remeber that if this trend continues, I'll be finding $800 next year

Enjoy!!!

Thanks
-GC

Agien golden. I am impessed, I did find one of those Girl scout things on the right, but I havent found a pocket knife with a blade intact yet, I see great treasure in your near future, (and maybe a young lady to share in your quest, "they do love that Bling") Happy hunting
