<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lordmarcovan, post: 5398903, member: 10461&quot;]Metal detecting is a lot like fishing.&nbsp; Hours of semi-boredom in the Great Outdoors (usually <i>pleasant</i> semi-boredom, unless there&#039;s bad weather or biting insects), punctuated by occasional flashes of excitement.&nbsp; And like fishing (but even moreso), you never know what&#039;s gonna come up on the end of your line (or in this case, in that hole you dig).&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Expect lots and lots of trash and disappointments, but if you stick with it long enough and go to the right sites, you will eventually get some very pleasant surprises as well.&nbsp; Persistence pays off.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have a few (just a <i>few</i>) dig videos from late in my detecting career on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/RobShinnick/videos" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.youtube.com/user/RobShinnick/videos" rel="nofollow">YouTube</a>.&nbsp; Of course you&#039;ll want to keep an eye on [USER=44615]@paddyman98[/USER]&#039;s work for more current adventures.</p><p><br /></p><p>There are a sprinkling of a few (again, just a <i>few</i>) of my older stories <a href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/index-of-lord-marcovans-story-threads-coin-collection-archives.298120/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/index-of-lord-marcovans-story-threads-coin-collection-archives.298120/">here</a>.&nbsp; Unfortunately the pinnacle of my detecting career happened before I was ever on the Internet, or carried a camera.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
