Me and my 11year old son both found silver today!

ilovemycows · Oct 27, 2013

We only started detecting in April and we are limited to school nights after homework is completed and weekends that he doesn't play in baseball tournaments so I consider us still new with this hobby.
Today we both found Silver! He found a beautiful 1941 mercury dime and I found a 1951 quarter! Happy dance!

Nice (sharing your hobby with your son) ilovemycows. Thanks for sharing...

Congratulations

I'm new here and just starting their adventure-seeking treasure. So far, I have a large collection of medals from World War 2, but it is pure coincidence.

I'm sorry for the mistakes, but English is not perfect for me. Once again, congratulations to you

The really neat thing about it all is time with your son. The research can actually be one of the most fun parts of the hobby. A day in the history section of the library together may find you guys the magic bullet sooner or later. Most libraries have a section dedicated to local history. :icon_thumleft:

My father got me interested in treasure hunting back in the 80s. Priceless memories you're making with your boy. :icon_thumleft:

It was awesome to see him find the merc! He was jumping up and down and shouting "I found a Merc!" repetitively. If anyone saw him they would have surely looked at him funny. Yes, priceless for sure

Love this hobby.

Sounds like me when I find a merc

LoL

Congrats on your "Double Silver" find the two of you! That is awesome! And that dance your son was doing is the "Happy Dance" we all do it, just some more gracefully then others. The cows would be laughing if I did it! You also have found Gold in the time well spent with your son, nice, very nice.

Silver always looks so nice coming out of the ground.

Thanks for clarifying that Digging-N-Dumps/Scott. I sort of think that I'm a minority as a a Mom that loves detecting. It's ok though. I can understand the assumption.
