    BUST SILVER! 2 Firsts Today!

    My buddy Mark and I did a little research and went out looking for some spots to detect today. We were just looking for an old school site, but we ended up getting an entire square mile to detect, so I think we did alright. We have lots of hunting left to do here, and hopefully we can find some...

    Did some hunting with Dewcon4414 today

    Met up with Dew at a park today and both of us did pretty well. Much better than I expected, that's for sure! He was a lot of fun to hunt with, and it was nice that we both were able to pull out some silver today! Finds: 1944 D Silver War Nickel 2 Silver Roosevelt Dimes (1946 & 1950) 4 Mercury...

    A few more keepers today

    I met up with a friend today to do a little hunting. We tried several spots, but the only one that really produced was the very first spot of the day. This little park always seems to give me something so I don't go home empty handed, and today was no different. The very first signal that I dug...

    A couple tokens and some silver

    A buddy came into town today and we did some hunting. The day was pretty rough as far as finds go. We were both pretty disappointed at the lack of finds. I did manage 2 really neat tokens about the size of half dollars. First Token: Reverse: Good For One Dollar On Purchase of $10 or More Good...

    6 Silver - 21 Wheats - 1 IH

    I hunted two parks today with Tony and Mark. The silver quarter was really unexpected. I got a 1" deep quarter hit and just assumed it was clad, so George has a stab to the temple. Poor guy. Somewhere along the way I lost a mercury dime. I did drop some coins in the parking lot when I was...

    Iffy signal turns into a sweet coin spill!

    I went out detecting this afternoon at what has become my favorite park for the past 2 weeks. After about 3 hours I was mumbling some bad words, as all I had found were 5 wheats, and they were all found about 30min between each other. But just before leaving, I thought I would try out one more...

    40 Oldies Today

    I generally don't post my finds over here all that much since 2 or 3 silver doesn't really get me too motivated to make a post, but I figured that this was enough to create a post for. :) I had two friends come detect today from out of town, so I took them to a park that rarely gives up the...

    Found 44 Old Coins Today

    Today was just one of those days. I met up with Tony around 9am. We hunted maybe 30-45min before the rain started coming down pretty hard. Tony was having some detector troubles. So we went out to get some tape, new earbuds, and some food. It was probably close to 1 before we got back out there...

    Finally pulled out my first seated of the year today

    I dug my first seated coin of the year today. It is also the first time I've ever dug a seated coin in a park. The rest have all been field or yard finds. It's rough, to say the least, but I'll take it! It IDed nothing like silver, but after digging my second 1902 Barber Dime of the day I was in...

    Took my Grandpa out detecting today

    I had recently been showing my Grandpa how many old coins and silver I've been finding recently. He was shocked. He used to detect the beaches up in Chicago in his younger days and still has his original Coinmaster. Last weekend he decided he wanted to get back into swinging and see if he...

    New Park, 90 Minutes Before the Rain

    Tried out a park I had never been to before. Sadly, right as I found a spot with some decent coins the rain kicked in. The ground here is not very nice to the copper coins, sadly. 7 Wheats - Can't get the dates off of 3 of them. 2 Indian Heads - 1900, 1882 1924 Mercury Dime - Has two rim bumps...

    This evening's silver

    Met up with Mark this evening at a school to do a little hunting. Tonight's Finds: 10 Wheats - Oldest was a 1917S, rest were newer 1944S Mercury Dime Sterling "R" Ring Sterling Pin - SHOLD-R-FORM - Found broken, so I'm tempted to count it as TWO silver! :)

    Two Neat Tokens and Some Coins

    Mark talked me into detecting today. Well he just asked, and that was all the talking into that I needed. We hit a bulldozed lot first and I got the Indy token and a wheat there. Then he took me to a little park that I had never been to before. I found a little hotspot that wasn't fill dirt...

    Had to compete with 5 other minelabs today

    I hunted alongside four other explorers and an xterra. We were in for a tough day even though I got off to a blistering start. In the first hour I had 2 IH's and a Barber Dime. Nothing to sneeze at. Then it cooled off. I was hoping for more finds to be posted, but the pickings were SLIM! You...

    Just one hour, but still 'Real'ly good

    Went back to the spot that gave up 12 silver yesterday. A sore/raw hand combined with the heat made me want to leave after just an hour. The hour I was there was productive, but I was hoping to get one more silver on the day to make 50 for June and July. I know that I could have found that one...

    Silver.... Silver... Silver... and then some more Silver

    Today was one of those fun detecting days that are a rarity. It felt as if I could do no wrong. Trash was few and far between and old targets were plentiful. I finished the day with 12 pieces of silver. I thought I had 13, but one of the 3 crosses I found was silver plate. Total Finds: 18...

    Another Big Silver Tonight

    My buddy Mark gave me a call this evening when he got off work and asked if I wanted to hunt this evening. Of course I said yes. I talked him into a spot I went to last week and got 6 silver, even though he seemed a bit reluctant. I think he has changed his tune now ;) The half was about 4"...

    Today's Silver and a Neat Button - ID Help Needed

    I tested out a new park today with hopes of finding some more silver. It was hot, but about every 20minutes I went back to the car for another drink. Even had some cute young girls come up and start hitting on me. They quickly left after 1) they realized I wasn't golfing, 2) I wasn't 16 like...

    Saturday's Silver and a Wheat with nails through it.

    Got out on Saturday with Mark. I think he is getting tired of me yelling out silver, indian, or wheatie, when we are out on a hunt. One of the wheats I dig has two pieces of iron piercing it, so I guess that is about you really need to prove how well the explorer can separate iron from a coin...
