<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JHXHD, post: 759463, member: 19721&quot;]On June 8th, 2009 I wandered into a small yard, of an Alpena, Michigan gardener.Not only did I wander in, so did my Garrett Ace 250 metal detector. I have been metal detecting since the June of 2008. I can tell you, its an addicting hobby. I was walking down the city block to the gardeners house when I was stopped by the owner. She said &quot;Hi! You must be Austin. Let me tell you something about my house.&quot; She blabbed on, on, and about how her house was built in the late 1910&#039;s,&nbsp; then she told me something about an empty lot, just on the corner of the street. She told me that a Flower house&nbsp; used to be there. She later went on to say, &quot; I always bought my flowers form there. It was such a shame to see it burnt to the ground.&quot; Now, I was completely obsessed, into the strange twist of her house history, and the garden store across the block, on the corner. She started walking, I followed. She talked once again as we approached her house. She told me to&nbsp; &#039;DIG IN&#039;. As I walked to the yard, she strolled into her house. I scanned the yard forever, in rows and rows of straight careful lines. I was getting ready to give when I got a really strong Copper signal, registering about 2-4 inches. I joyfully pulled out my &#039;Leshe Digger&#039; and dug down. I cut a &quot;C&quot; shaped hole and pulled the plug, flap, up. I was shocked to see what I saw....&quot; Awwww @#@## A quarter??!!&quot; But As I picked it up. I noticed it said &#039;ONE CENT 1899&#039;, By then. I freaked. i will never forget that Warm June Day. Here are the pictures.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
