hi all, bought my first machine in 1972 and haven't stopped since. i have slowed up a little. back and knees don't work as good as they did .
Since 72,

!!! I started in the early 70s (about 73) and did it up to the early 80s. I got back into the hobby around 3 to 4 years ago and what a blast it is!!!

Do you have any great stories from the past?

I can tell you that back then the ground was littered with silver and I pulled up plenty!!! It was possible to average 12 to 20 nice silver coins in a day. I pulled up the big stuff too, dollars and halves, very old with seated types and bust coins thrown in the mix!!!
Those were the days!!!!!!!

I have some pretty good stories to share, and will post them after I think about for a while!

Yeah, I remember
