Default Grandsons first treasure hunt with grampa.
This is hands down my favorite hobby. I've been "beeping" since March of 1970. Having uncovered thousands of coins, relics, and oddities of all kinds. the thrill of the hunt never ends.
Here I have attempted the amazement on a young boys face when he and grampa actually find the lads very first coin.!
Grampa is wondering, who waitied the longest for this first hunt, the boy, or himself?
Anyway, Tucker should understand this, he's an old "pirate".

Hey there Jim, you nailed it this time old buddy, that's your absolute best yet, man, I know that feeling real well. Be sure to post that one "you know where" it shouldn't hang around very long. Great carving and great story.
