My metal detector friend, Bob, took me to the local detector club meeting tonight after we had some pizza down the street. A small turn-out, but I got to see everyone's finds for the month and also their 'best of' for the year. I lot of nice jewelry and some very nice coins too.
Took the token I found last week, see http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,56853.0.html and a club memeber token collector offered me $20 for it so I sold it. Yea! Not much into tokens so I'll add the $20 to clad stash for future gold or silver purchase.
At the end of the meeting they had a raffle for a bunch of silver coins and a second raffle for two 1945 Mexican Gold 2 Peso coins. I didn't buy any tickets; being new I figured it was more for the paying members. Just before they started, it was announced that they still needed $10 more dollars in tickets for the gold raffle. So I went up with my $20 to get $10, but some other guy also went up with $5 so I just got $5 so they could make their $10. I went back and sat down.
So they call my number and I go up and get one of the gold coins! They have me pick the next ticket for the next winner. So I pull the ticket and go back and sit down. They call my number AGAIN and I end up with both gold coins for the night!
Man you should of heard the yelling! They say its never happened before. I guesss I'd better join the club!
