<p>[QUOTE=&quot;detector99, post: 1589804, member: 1666&quot;]Hi everyone, it&#039;s been a while since I last visited this forum. Too busy with work and traveling. Anyway, I thought I would throw in my 2-cents worth re: coin collecting before the Internet. And actually it was a 2-cent piece that got me started with coin collecting. It was 1975, and I had just purchased my first metal detector. I went to a local park to give it a try, but was not having much luck. I dug a bunch of bottle caps, pull-tabs, and tinfoil. Undeterred, I went back the next day, with a better understanding of the detector, and I started digging pennies, a few wheat cents, a few more pull-tabs, I was excited about those, my first coins, and then I dug a 1867 2 cent piece. Since then I have been an avid coin collector and have located coins with my detector, throughout the U.S.&nbsp; And I still own that 2 cent piece.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks,</p><p>Frank[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
