    Hello from Southern Iowa

    Hello fellow detectorists New to the forum so I thought I would introduce myself.
    I've been detecting for three years now and I use a Garrett Ace350.
    I am 13 years old and picked up the hobby from my dad driftwood1963 and friend freemindstuck.
    driftwood1963 and freemindstuck gave me nickname Dime-O-Mite because my first silver was a dime.
    Thanks for looking and coil to the soil friends.

    Welcome from Washington state near Mt. St. Helens. It's good to have you on board. Congrats on that first silver dime; sounds like a appropriate nickname for sure!
