    Weekend Finds

    Not sure what some of these are. The big round thing reads "Phelps Dodge" on the top. I found that they were a Copper/Gold company that started in the 1830's. Not sure if it's old or not. Does the round knob thing go to an old lantern maybe? The other round bent up thing reads "Elmo Sisters...

    Question

    I started Metal Detecting around April 2007. I have found some nice stuff but I'm wondering if I'm passing up too much stuff. I have an MXT and at first was digging just about everything. Well, I got tired of digging 300+ holes and finding maybe 1 or 2 keepers. Granted it is worth diggin all...
