First real day of hunting (coins and button?)

[bellapoison]

If last week someone had asked me how many soda cans were buried in my backyard, I would've shrugged my shoulders. Today, I have the answer: millions. While most of my finds today were soda cans, parts of soda cans and rusty nails, I did happen upon a couple of interesting things: a clad quarter and penny, a Tanzanian coin, a washer, a metal whatsit (which looks kind of like a tie fighter), and another metal whatsit that looks like a huge button.

By the way, today was my first real day of metal detecting ever.

Looks like you're off to a great start! Your Tanzanian coin is very neat.

GREAT HUNT!!!

The tie fighter is a plywood clip used for roof decking, the button thingy is in fact an old button, your quarter has a headache, and the Tanzanian coin is really cool!

Hope to hunt with you sometime in the NTX area.

Fun! Don't you just wonder how that foreign coin ended up there? Glad you had fun!

Now you know don't bury your cans in the back yard. You may want to detect it some day. Just kidding. Not to bad for your own yard...Matt

Interesting digs...to see a world coin dug up in your back yard should have a fun story behind it. I wonder what that coin would say?? Congrats and HH

Now that you are hooked, you will find many excellent finds with your Ace. I love mine.
