Default Hello everyone

After lurking in the background for a couple of days I decided to join in on the fun here. Seems to be a great bunch of folks in here and hopefully they won't mind me picking their brain.
Brand new to this hobby and hooked already. Just bought a Whites Prism 3 on Thursday and have really enjoyed the mystery of this, never knowing whats there........at least for me it is still a mystery. Anyhow just wanted to speak to the forum here and look forward to learning from y'all and maybe getting together with someone to hunt one day, I am in central VA.

HH!

Thank You Dooby and Julie

So far I have just picked modern coins, did find a 50 cent piece in my own yard along with a large caliber rifle bullet.....pretty odd since I live in a city. Going to try to hit an old civil war hospital by weeks end.

Amazing what comes out of the ground, our sub-division was built in the mid 80's, the kids were playing in a part of the yard that was washed away by the rains, they came in the house with a silver washington and a franklin half, go figure.................btw, nice little bass !!!
