Primary Interest:
All Treasure Hunting
The weather was a little warmer today so I decided to travel about 30 miles to a park where I've found lots of old coins. The area used to be a lakeside recreation park in the 1920's and has been very good to me. I searched for a couple of hours hoping the MX Sport would pull some old coin that my XLT had missed.

It seems that the MXS is intended to be swung a little slower than the XLT so I didn't cover as much ground as I normally would have. Maybe it was just me trying to pick through a lot of trash and isolate good signals. Anyway, two hours of searching resulted in one recently drop quarter and several really deep digs. After I took a short nap in my camper a fellow came along and asked if I was treasure hunting. He said he had an interest in old coins and showed me his 1964 JFK half dollar. He also pointed to the place that he had found a 1927 buffalo nickel that washed out of a bank. He seemed like a nice enough guy although I suspected he was living out of his truck. I told him I had something he might like and went to my truck to get a 1934 buffalo nickel that was in my pouch. I gave it to him to add to his collection and he seemed to really appreciate the gift.

He left and I went over to the area he showed me. After about 30 minutes I found an Avery 925 silver ring. This was the first ring that I've found with the MXS and I was really excited. I had promised my wife some rings when the MXS arrived and now I was going to keep promise number one. You see, my house is like the White's commercial where the guy finds a ring and gives it to his wife. EVERYTHING that I find is offered to her and she takes whatever she likes. I know she going to like this one. By the way, when your wife is always wearing rings that you find, they add greatly to the conversation whenever metal detecting comes up.

Thank for looking and as always, H Digs!
