Default Biblical inspiration leds to Queen Victoria

From the land of the Bluenose.....and it came to pass that Tony of "T" did make haste from his humble abode to begin his pilgramage to the promised land of copper and silver disks of payment. The day was a blessed one as the sun radiated from the heavens while a gentle breeze fanned the earth.

The well travelled road led the seeker of the disks to the dwelling of the Bluenoser and the two followers of the House of Garrett joined together and continued east towards the promised land. Thanks and prayers were silently uttered to Saint Digalot, the patron saint of detectorists.

The journey was arduous at times with foul demons hiding everywhere
but the brethern of Garrett remainded faithful and did not faulter nor pay homage to the false gods of White's, Fisher nor Minelab.

Halfway to thy destination the two swingers of the white orbs of Garrett entered the field of combatants who compete in their chosen disciple of athletic endeavours. Tony T had a stirring in his heart for the disks of old and swung here, swung there whilst twice two silver disks of silver where found under his righteous coil. These were from the quarter variety in the years of our Lord 1960 and 1965. In his mercy and compassion he also spirited a man of iron from the clutches of the underworld.

The Bluenoser did have reason to fall to his knees and rejoice as he uncovered the "Good Book."
With head held up to the sky thy Bluenoser asked for guidance and was rewarded with a sweet voice that only he could hear.

"Open thy Holiest of Books my son, follow thy devine road least taken to a field that thine eyes have seen before. Dig and the old will come to your companion!"


A feeling swelled deep within the body of the Bluenoser and the two swingers of the orbs of Garrett's found thy roadside Inn of Subway and broke bread.

Once the meal was over the two brethern traversed the road least taken and came upon a field. A wonderful field full and over grown of God's great bounty.


It was not to long before Tony of T dropped to his knees in the chosen field and rejoiced as he unearthed a 1858 disk of payment with Queen Victoria looking up at ye.


The Lord had indeed sowed many a disk of payment into thy field but it was time for the two swingers of the white orbs of Garrett to return to their adobes and keep thy peace with thy chosen mate or the wrath of hell would surely befall them both.

Tony T spilled his found treasures for all to see.


The Bluenoser who was wise of years took home the spoils of the day and offered his fair maiden a chose...cream of ice mint chocolate cone or a royal brew at thy local Tim's. All was well in the land of the Bluenose that God had so lovingly created.
Thy Holy treasure consisted of 83 disks of payment at $9.49 including Thy Good Book, a bangle 1940 disk of silver

Thou hast done well, brave Knight! Pray, take thine ease and enjoy fine food, fine ale and finer wenches, whilst thou doest bask in the day's glory!

In other words...Way to go, Dude!
