Giving back to the hobby

[JohnSilver]

I have been reading post's for years, and have enjoyed all the treasure hunting stories from the greats that post here and on other forums, and like many people
I have seen my finds diminishing as the years goes by, I still hit hot spots know and then, but not like the old days, one hot spot kept me going all summer.
So what do you guys think about giving back, I look at all the coins and rings I have found, most are not worth a whole lot, (the sentimental value is huge)
but when I am gone, who really will care, So I have been thinking of giving Back.
How?............by tracing back over my 40 years of metal detecting and reseeding all the parks, ball fields, beaches, woods, trails, graveyards (just Kidding)
with my old finds, I'm not saying give up your best stuff, but a hand full of wheats and a few silver, sure would go a long way.
Think of it as "Catch and release" maybe take a picture of that 1943 wheat and put it back in the ground for the next guy, or you can be cruel and put a new
memorial Penny, LOL, how do you think all those deep new coins are found deeper than old coins, just a thought.
Happy Hunting John
