    1st CONTEST for 2011 * WE HAVE A WINNER *

    Today I dug a coin thats frozen in a block of dirt. Its VDI was a bouncing 80-86 at 7 using the M6 with the 6x10 coil.

    This contest will run from now, Jan 1st 2011, and will close on Friday Jan 7th, 2011 at 6PM Eastern time.

    Guess what the coin is, Year and denomination. Whoever comes closest at the end of the contest wins a prize. In case of a tie, whoever guessed sooner wins. 1 guess per member.

    I have to look through my stuff to see what the prize will be. I'll post the prize sometime later today.

    OK...The prize will be winners CHOICE of: 1- A whites pouch
    2- A sand scoop
    3- A whites travel bag
    (all prizes are brand new)

    GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!!!
