A prouder man might be insulted !

Once in a while we have company and the topic turns to metal detecting. You know the usual questions, whats your best fine? How deep ? Ect,ect. So I end up showing em some of my best finds -not that many and not that great, but not all that bad either. What could be taken to some as an let down ,insult or go figure is my NUMBER ONE item of interest. Years ago my wife started filling up a clear 1 gal. jug with the near worthless stuff of interest I find. You know small toys, dog collar tags, 25cent parking tokens brass shells, cheap watches, get the drift. Well people will turn that jar around and around to see whats in there. I even have dumped it out on newspaper so grown men could go over each item.
That jar has had allot more attention than any ring or silver coin I've found. Everybody has a little trashmaster in them. I give this one to my wife.
 
Just because you find something that is not worth a lot of money doesn't mean that it doesn't have value !!..... Every so called "worthless" trinket , or dog tag, or piece of chain , or whatever , tells s story ..... I'll bet there aren't many items in that jar that you don't remember digging !!.....BTW, I have my own batch of trash too !!....I too like the name " Trashmaster" ......Your wife sounds like a great gal ....Jim
 
Nice story. Lesson: It's all treasure! Your wife is wise.

Yeah I've got a collection like that of a jillion trinkets of all kinds and it draws the most interest, especially the religious items.

Yeah thats a good idea, (the clear jug). My neighbors are always wanting to see my finds and when I pour them out of the container they are always amazed at the items and they love to go through it all and i get a thrill . Ithink I'll get me a one also and maybe a 55 gallon clear barrell drum for tabs and zennys
