I made the December 2012 issue of The Searcher Magazine

I was asked on another forum for permission to use my find and story in this months issue of The Searcher metal detecting magazine and of course I agreed.

The TNet thread: http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/todays-finds/298515-early-1900s-watch-camera-japanese-coin.html

The blip from the magazine:

I was flattered when I actually received the issue and saw my piece amongst so many truly great finds.

Anyway, thanks John and I hope I waited long enough before posting this... If not, sorry

Thanks for looking!

Well, when it was new and working it was only worth $2.50. Now that it's broken what's it worth

Just kidding, congratulations on that find and published article.

I know if I found anything worthy to be published I already have the story ready. Here it is

I was detecting, the machine beeped, I dug, and found this. Short and sweet

Hmmm... Mounds Park as in Indian Mounds Park? I have not and I'm not sure if we can. There may be some spots though.

And thanks..
