Detector(s) used
White's dfx with sunray probe Explorer SE Pro
We spent the weekend at my daughters in the metro east St Louis area. My 9 year old grandson, Jake and I went to a couple schools in the area on Memorial day. Jake had his dad's DFX and when he would find something I would scan it with my SE and tell him if he should dig it. After about 20 min at the 2nd school he called me over to scan a target, I told him it was probably a dime and to go ahead and dig it. Well, out pops a 1959d Rosie, boy was he excited.and a His first silver coin. We also got $7.83 in clad and a music award, plus the usual junk. Thanks for looking.

Congrats to your grandchild :icon_thumleft: Good to see the younger generation getting into this hobby. It will keep them busy and motivated. Kids and teens are my major 'cheerleading group' unlike grown-ups who are often not exactly detectorist-friendly.
 

I think his fate is sealed now. He's a detectorist for life! :laughing7:
Great job !!!!!
 

Hey Ken,
