I’ve had this urge lately….I have no idea why, but my old vintage Original Sovereign has been hanging on the wall for quite a few years, I believe I got it back in 92 and actually this was my second detector. My first detector was the “Big Bud”, remember those? Anyway I decided to charge up the batteries to see if they even worked anymore, I believe the last time I charged them was about 3 or 4 years ago…these things are old like about, 20 years or more but I do charge them every once in a while, cause you never know.
Anyway got them charged up, put one in the old dinosaur and what do you know!, it worked! So I headed out to one of my favorite hunting grounds not too far from home to give it a quick test, it was kinda late so only had one hour to hunt, so first outing I didn’t find much but a few clad coins and the usual junk. That was yesterday. So today I decided to take it back out again for a bit longer and I had made up my mind….I would keep on using this thing…..till I found Plata! That means…Silver! for those of you who don’t know espanol. Now this thing is not light, not compared to the 705 and the AT Max that I normally use. This thing will kill you elbow in a jiff, Yes it will, this thing weigh’s over 5 pounds amigo! They use to make them heavy in the olden days. Anyway I was able to get in a 3 hour hunt today and am happy to say that I did! find my Plata. 2 mercs and 5 wheats and the usual you know what. Ooh and a few relics too, man this old sovereign really bought back some good old memories. I remember when I used to go into any park and always came out with some Silver and a mix of good ole coins every time, oh well, those were the days. Sooo,….you know what that means? That means I can put this baby back into hibernation for another year or so! maybe? I’m not sure anymore, I kinda enjoyed myself with it.
Oh I almost forgot, Good ole Michdig was there too and he saw it all! Well all except for the last merc. Ok so I say H.H. to all of you Amigos and remember, be kind to you dinosaurs, and once in a while take them out for a spin or two if you have one, I guarantee you won’t regret it…well maybe!?!?
