I see there has been a little OT going on here but I just wanted to share with my fellow carpers. Aside from fishing, I like to get out and do a little coin shooting with my metal detector and tonight was sweet! Aside from the hand full of quarters and pennies I found I hit 2 wheat pennies from 51' and 56' and my first Susan B. Anthony from 1980! Anyone else dabble in coin shooting??

I enjoy nature photography. Also, I have some pretty nice telescopes that I set up once in a while. Too much light polution around here to do much good with them. I have been interested in metal detecting, but my old knees would not care for me to crawl around digging holes in the ground.

finding that susan b anthony was a hoot I bet.I grew up in Beaumont,Tx.I spent many weekends in the late 60's early 70's metal detecting with my dad.We found thousands of coins.We had a system of cutting the grass and replacing it in one chunk so it was hard to even tell we had dug there.We hit the old fairgrounds and old magnolia park and other old parks.Found lots of buffalo nikcols, V nichols,mercury dimes barber dimes and the old quarters and half dollars were standing liberty I think.many dating in the late 1800's.Lots of indian head pennies.My dad and I were held up at my dad's house in Houston around 1985 by a couple of gents with semi auto pistols.They got the whole collection of coins but not the great memories.Your daughter will love the hobby I'm sure.
