    My daughter gets #4 for the year...

    So far, my detector has remained in mothballs with this stinking snow... However, my daughter has been a silver finding magnet. She has that extra chromozome that Angel has... She has so far found 3 pennies or otherwise known as mercury dimes in our couch and just last night... We're walking through walmart last night and she picks a coin off of the floor... &quotaddy, I found another penny... It was a hideous looking coin that looked like it had been stuck in somebody's cupholder... I looked again and thought I saw a winged head... Sure enough, another mercury dime...1939. I can't wait to get started, so far she's kicking my butt in the silver dept.

    Your right Beef! Angel is kind of like one of those Stan Lee, Marvel comic book figures. I think he received an accidental overdose of detector radiation when attempting to use a nuclear powered battery in his E-Trac. Now when he get excited he turns into....

    THE INCREDIBLE MERCURY MAN rofl

    Look in the park!...It's a bird....It's a plane...

    Good for your Daughter Beef. She will be detecting in no time.

    How old is she? That is really funny! So are you going to get her a simple little metal detector to start out?

    My 2 yr old is already showing interest, walks with the shovel and helps dig. Puts pennies in his pockets I used to let him play with my Prism IV, but now I won't let him touch my XLT (pushing buttons and programming wierd stuff, I'm sure you relate ). Anyway, he was crying and I asked him if he wanted his own little metal detector -he looked at me with disbelief, registering what I had just asked- and then the biggest smile and said &quotkay mommy. I wonder what the very youngest age is for little metal detecting fool? lol

    Well he's probably not the youngest but my youngest was seven last year when he found his first IH. It was a 1898. Using my Prizm IV.

    I hunt alot with my buddy Don and he brings along his little boy quite often. There was like 3 or 4 occasions when Don waited to see where his son sat down in the grass to detect under his butt and he hit silver on each occasion! Sometimes you just never know!
