One man’s trash

… is another man’s new hobby.

I’ve really been enjoying my new metal detector. I still mostly find trash, but I’ve been fixing some settings to learn more about what to ignore, and today I bought a couple of upgraded gadgets that should help me be even more discriminating.

I’ve found a few “spendies”, coins that are just current spendable money, and even a couple of slightly older coins that would be ever so slightly collectible if they were in much better condition. Some of the coins have been surprises, looking just like lumpy rocks on the beach. But take them home and whack them with a hammer, and out pops a coin. No rings or jewelry yet, but that will happen soon enough.
