My 12 Year Old Daughters Awesome Find!

[BryanM362]

I think my 12 year old daughter likes metal detecting as much as I do! She is a great helper too. I was detecting with her on our backyard today and while I was filling in one hole she continued detecting and got a good signal. I helped her dig it, and it was a 1905 Indian Head Penny! Which she also located with the pinpointer. This surprised me since out house was built just 12 years ago, but the dirt in certain parts of the yard must not have been disturbed. This is the oldest coin we've ever found. She was very excited, as was I!

AU, it's does have a dent/hole, but it doesn't go all the way thru. I like the idea though...

You can buy a bezel for the IH and then add a chain.

first of all I have to say I am surprised that you can reproduce.
Secondly, good for her!! she is already better at mding than I am. ( jealousy fills me) and i am certain, as a father, that her find makes you happier than if you found it
Good on ya mate!

I take my little man with me (7 yrs old) when we go out. He swings with both arms and he seems to find more than I do because I'm constantly digging his holes for him. It's great seeing him find the cool coin or other interesting piece though. I'd rather he find it than me.
