Had a great day today, as a grandpa took his grandson out with the detector. It was all going a bit Oh Hum, the usual junk coming out of the ground. I had chosen an old race track that I had wanted to detect for a while so while the boy was here I thought....well why not. After only a few metres, we had nails, bottle tops, can pulls, etc etc and then WhamO, a 5 cent piece. I smile now as I reflect on the look in this kid's eyes as he reached down and retrieved the coin. And then he was in, sucked in that is. He was giving up the detector to no one. Another Detectorist joins the ranks.

I wish i started learning at that age and had someone like you to show me the ropes. One day he might teach his grandson what you showing him now. Good luck to both of you.
