    New to this site.

    Hello fellow treasure hunters,
    I am new to this site, but have been treasure hunting since I was about 8 years old, I am now 32. As a kid I would always look in the lot next door and find coins, marbles, bottles etc. wash up after a heavy rain. I now have a White's MXT detector and use it when I can. I mainly like to search for coins and jewelry with it. I also like to look for arrowheads when I find a place I can hunt. I dig old bottles when I find places to dig, currently have found a spot in my own back yard that has bottles from the 1920s and 30s. I will be sharing my finds with this site soon.

    Thanks,
    Jayson
