My 1st Silver (metal detecting) 42 Merc

[QuarterMaster]

I work with a single mom, she has a son that's 6. His dad is out of the picture so all of us guys at work make a point to give the boy a bit more attention. My daughter and I went over to their place last week and spent about 30 minutes detecting her front yard and the boy was following me around so I gave him my pinpointer and he would search the hole. He said we were looking for Leprechaun gold. He had a lot of fun, so much so that I got a call today from his mom. She said "Dillon wants to know if you would like to come over and look for Leprechaun gold again." I said sure and grabbed the Ace 350 and went over.

We found about a pound of beer caps, 1 clad quarter, 1 clad nickel 37 zinc pennies and a 1942 Merc in great shape!

Nice going QuarterMaster, I have a soft spot in my hart for single moms, my daughter is one. They can really have a tough time and need a break every now and then.

Sounds like your doing the right thing. It's not the size of fish that matters when teaching the young but the experience you have together.
