WINNER #1
Congratulations to our International Favorite Finds winner Paul C. from Europe!
Paul recently got the itch to get back into metal detecting and pulled out his trusty ACE 250 for his first dig in 10 years. He found a few old copper coins on his first dig, but more was to come for him. The next week, he went on club dig and got to see his friends. He was excited to go because they went to some new permissions that could turn up some good history. Paul says, “I spotted a patch of the field that just called to me, and I made a beeline for it. The air was still, just the quiet hum of my Garrett swinging back and forth. Then, out of nowhere, I hit a tone that stopped me. It was the sweetest sound a detectorist could hope for. My heart raced as I started digging. I carefully turned over a clod of earth, and there it was—at first, it looked like a brass button, but there was something special about it. My hands trembled as I turned it over, revealing a horse engraved on the front.” He discovered a gold stater from 50 B.C.! He could not stop shaking in excitement that he found this on his first time back detecting. Great find!
Paul C WINS an Garrett ACE Apex Metal Detector, Pro-Pointer AT Z-Lynk, and 60th Anniversary Merchandise!!!!
