Ok, I had to put this up.

I just cashed in my clads at the bank.

This is the total clads after about 3 weeks of casual hunting. I could easily become a passionate evangelist for this hobby. The paper illustrates to the 'non believers' (I know those in this forum don't have to be convinced, but I have my stories about others who do) just how much moolah is in the ground.

I have an friend who is meticulous, painfully over analytical, almost obsessive compulsive at researching every detail about anything. He also has a lot of spare time on his hands. He is into coins and money (who isn't?) I have been trying to convince him to get into the hobby of metal detecting. He thinks about it, analyzes it. Maybe tomorrow, maybe, I dunno, it's just might not be my thing he tells me. But he's a coin collector. I've showed him my merc, my silver washingtons, my wheats, my silver rosies. I'm not done yet by any means! I've just started again! It almost frustrates me when you're sharing your joy to people who just don't get it (more for us, eh?)

Maybe he'll understand THIS picture. 3 little weeks of fun in the sun...

Money talks...

If he is a true coin collector then he probably wants the best example he can afford to buy. Not an example out of the ground. I collect coins because I metal detect not the other way around. I've never purchased a coin for my collection. I enjoy finding them more then buying or owning them. I know a guy that collects coins and metal detects. He saves up his clad then buys collector coins with it. Since most of us will never find a gold coin with our machines I was thinking about taking my clad and buying one. I just can't get myself to do it....I love the hunt. There is always trhe chance I will find that gold coin and that is what keeeps me hunting.
