Default still not frustrated

my 2nd time out I spent about an hour digging trash. I was getting a little chilly and the ground was still a little frozen it was about 28° nice if I was in the sun. I was working a private residence. A house built in 1900. I decided that I would take a couple swings between the houses they only sit about 4' apart and I got a clad quarter. My first. I cleaned up and took another swing and got another. Fun now im exited to go back when it warms up some.

Cool! I'm new too, and I love the thrill, no matter what is at the bottom of the hole I dug. Keep your head up, the big treasures are ahead in your future.

My first few weeks I was the Penny and Pull Tab killer. That's all I could dig. Didn't know my machines language very well and was very frustrated. Then one weekend I dug 8 silver coins and that all went away. It'll happen, and then you'll be all set.
