    Thanks Epi, the M6 is a coin and ring vacuum. I have had a lot of fun with it.

    Howdy back! My Grandma and Aunt live in Puyallup, WA, anywhere close to ya? My finds are nothing special really, a pile of dirty coins, about a $100 in scrap silver with some gold sprinkled in. I almost have the M6 paid off, which is cool.

    Thanks for the welcome del, my most memorable find has to be my first find, on my first hunt outside my yard. My first and only (so far) silver coin, popped out a 1954 Franklin Half on a scraped home lot in Boulder, CO. Found it where the back of the garage used to be. I was hooked from there.

    Puyallup is about 175 miles northwest. I'm in the Columbia River Gorge on the Oregon/Washington border. Been through or past Puyallup many time though.

    Welcome from southern Nevada. That M6 is a coin finding machine... I love 'em.
    I've traveled a long way, and many of the roads weren't paved.

    Re: New guy saying Hi!

    Welcome aboard from western MA thumbsup01 My first coin was a Memorial penny lol But my first silver was a Barber dime. Funny, I can't remember what I had for lunch yesterday, but I can remember a lot of good finds over the years. lol Metal detecting certainly stays with you. Nice that you got a Franklin. I don't think I've found one
