    A few years ago,(when I was still a newbie to the hobby) I got permission to hunt a friends 5 acre farm. On my first hunt, I found the owners Rosary, which she had lost years ago. She was so glad to have it back.

    Dan/Del and OxShoeDrew ,Thanks. This is a pretty nice thing you are doing here offering up these fine coins and it is my pleasure to announce that in doing this you both have automatically become the default winners of my contest . . Yes , you are both winners in the once in a lifetime " Cheap Thrills Giveaway " .The prizes don't come anywhere near the ones you are giving ( after all " Cheap is my first name ") but they are better than being poked in the eye with a sharp stick ( or digging up a Zinkoln) .Please E-mail me your addresses at your earliest convenience .


    No, this is not a joke and it's not an autographed picture of me ( although part of it has a slight resemblance to the guy in my avatar) .

    All of you have some great stories and I really liked reading them. My own story is from this summer as I have only just started this hobby/addiction so here it goes. One night I was detecting in a campground. At one point I found my first and to date only class ring and I was pumped! Next day I could see there was a name on it so I googled the name and came up with 38 people. Soon after I was showing somebody the ring and he looked at the name and said he knew the man! So he facebooked him and then he called and I ended up talking to him and now he has his ring back after 33 years. I will never forget the excitement in his voice as I talked with him. Now looking for the next one.

    When I find a picture that makes me look somewhat human , I'll do that , it may be a long wait though as I can't remember ever seeing one.
