Ok it is that time of year again!.........

[Mike from MI "Iron Brigade"]

Tell us. If you could find one "first" this year with you detector. What would it be?
A first is an item that you have found with your detector for the first time. For many of us we have a list of items we hope to find someday.
My top three - 1- gold coin, 2 - silver dollar, 3 - platinum ring.

1800,s coin, diamond ring, old token!

1- a 1973 memorial penny 2-a beaver tail pull tab and...3-something really old, like a bottle cap! Believe me...it would be a great feeling just to dig something!! I was showing my finds to Brian's social worker from his hospice provider yesterday and it really made want to get back out there. I may have done a little digging in my yard since, but my last serious hunt was the CMD forum back in '09!!

But, I would love to find a diamond ring or gold necklace!!

A Crucifix, on a long,beautiful Silver Chain. Imagine digging such a beautiful find and, as you raise it out of the hole to view its beauty, a man's hand reaches down gently taking hold of it You look up and realize it's Jesus holding the chain and He says "Do you love Me more than these?", to which I say, "Yes Lord, I love You more than these." Then just as suddenly as He appeared, He vanishes from site. I look down again at the Crucifix and chain to realize it's no longer Silver but Pure Gold! I am astonished! Thinking of what just happened, I decide to sell the find and donate the money to the 'Worthy Student Fund' of our local Christian school to help someone financially acquire a Christian education that otherwise wouldn't have had the opportunity. That would be my greatest first find of the year.

PS being I have only found 1 seated coin ever if I don't find a bust coin, I'd be very happy with another seated
Also I've only found 1 USA large cent so another one of them would be great. Not sure if I can find one older then my 1st as I was kind of spoiled with a 1798 Large cent for my 1st.

it would be a gold coin. After 30 years digging I have lucked upon most other things. Steve in so az

The three best finds I would like to make this year are:

#1 Finding a piece of jewelry and being able to return it to its owner.

#2 Finding a piece of evidence to aid law enforcement.

#3 Watching the finding of a first coin with the young man I am mentoring.

A BIG Plus is I would not need a big safe to protect these treasures.

May you all find treasures that are eternal this year.

John

My desire is just to be able to go again like I used to do....it is good exercise, fun and I spent time in God's beautiful nature and talking to Him in prayer and praise! But I still delight in the Lord and get a thrill out of what ya'll find and post! My He bless each of you with the heart's desire of what you would like to find this year! Amen! Ma Betty
