A couple of years ago I had a phone call from my daughter,she told me she thought my 3 year old grandson might have swallowed a coin.She said she had seen him playing with it on the table and now it had vanished.
I said to her to bring him around and I would scan him with my Explorer, confident that the machine could do it.Well she came around and I ran the detector across his belly and I got a good clear signal identifying the coin as an Australian 5 cent piece.Then she took him down to the doctor who took an xray confirming that it was indeed a 5 cent piece.She was scared that he might need surgery to remove the coin but the doctor said as it was only a small coin he should pass it naturally in a few days and that she should keep an eye on him just in case of complications. So on a daily basis I scanned him with the detector and finally on the third day the signal vanished.
We figured that using the detector was a better option than the obviuos unpleasant bit of digging!
There are a couple of punch lines which go well here.
We waited for him to put his money down !
He put down a cash deposit
