[QUOTE="PlanoSteve, post: 3333505, member: 91609"]A few months ago, I mentioned my "seeding" of my back yard, for my grandkids to use their metal detector (which I gave them for Christmas about 3 years ago). That was so much fun for them, & I believe there are still some treasures out there (they did find the Morgan & silver ring). Count me in the group that will never pass on a free penny, but my one real "glory" moment happened about 20 years ago. I was out mowing my front yard when I noticed little bits of paper flying around. I was going to ignore it but one of the larger pieces caught my eye, so I stopped & sure enough it was definitely a bill of some kind. It took me several minutes to collect all the pieces I could find, about 20 to 30 of them. When I finished with the lawn, I put the pieces together (attached with clear tape) like a puzzle, & behold, it was a $10 bill. More amazing, I had found every piece! And the bank replaced it with a brand new one![/QUOTE]
