Default First Find

Well I'm a newb and wanted to share my first find. Yesterday was only the 3rd time I've used my detector and I was working an area of my lawn when I got my first significant find. A very rare 2004 dime! Ha Ha. It was about 2 inches down. I will say it was pretty exciting to see that coin pop out of the ground and then the anticipation as you try to clean it well enough to read the year. I had fun and look forward to many more finds.

That's a good start! HA HA KT's first finds in the Royal Courtyard consisted of 3 16 penny nails and couple of roofing tacks!
