    ATG Finds More Gold :thumbup:

    Hi Guys, I took my ATG out for another swim yesterday. After a few hours of scooping up pull tabs and a various assortment of junk, my trustworthy ATG managed to sniff out two more gold rings within 15 minutes of each other. I'm beginning to define detecting as hours of boredom separated by...

    Back to the BBQ ....

    Hi Guys, I was starting to gain control over my metal detecting addition but it looks like I've fallen off the wagon (again) due to my recent luck in finding lots of silver. I expect to experience some serious withdrawal as soon as my honey hole dries up. Here's a pic of today's proceeds ...

    BBQ Spot Heats Up!

    Hi Guys, I went back to my BBQ honey hole today after work in hopes of squeezing one more piece of silver out of the ground. Part of the area was covered in tall grass the last time I was there so I couldn't hunt it very well. To my surprise, the park lawn mowing guy managed to get the mower...

    ATG Finds More Gold (and a little silver too)

    Hi Guys, My ATG managed to sniff out another 14K sparkler from one of the local lakes on Saturday. I haven't had the diamond tested yet but I'm quite sure it's real. My thanks go out to the swimming public who manage to keep our water hunting spots well stocked! Here's a pic. [attachment...

    BBQ Pit gives up some more silver ...

    Hi Guys, I wasn't planning on detecting today after work but the lure of hitting my BBQ hot-spot again was too great to resist. After a few minutes of detecting, I got a really strong hit (sounded like a can top). I flipped the plug and out popped another walker followed by a silver quarter and...

    Trash points the way to silver

    Hi Guys, I had a couple of hours to spend after work today so I headed off to one of the local hammered parks in hopes of finding a couple of wheaties and perhaps a piece of silver. I figured my prospects were low but the weather was nice and I needed the exercise (too much indulgence in my...

    AT Gold Still Shines

    Hi Guys, It's been awhile since I had any finds worth posting. It seemed like the old water hunting holes were beginning to dry up. So, when my hunting buddy and I packed up our ATG's and headed out to one of the local lakes, my expectations were running low. After an hour of digging up a hand...

    They Still Exist!

    Hi Guys, It's been a few years since I have fished a dime slam out of the dirt. I began to think they were extinct. I'm glad to see they're still out there. Here's a pic plus a few other goodies. HH DD

    Never Give Up :surrender:

    Hi Guys, I've spent the last couple of hunts at local parks that appeared to have been milked dry by the end of last season. My primary motivation to revisit them was that I'm running out of new places to detect and besides ... I needed an excuse to spend more time outdoors and less time riding...

    Sunday Afternoon Digs

    Hi Guys, Here's a few finds from this past Sunday. I found two of the minie balls a solid foot down in the same hole. My old Ex2 can still sniff em' out. HH DD

    Dirt Fishin' Season is Finally Open ...

    Hi Guys, Well ... The ice and snow melted off enough here in upstate New York to finally do some detecting. No big finds but it sure felt good to get out. My only complaint was that all my metal detecting muscles had atrophied from resting on the couch for the past few months. .... Got up the...

    Persistence finally pays off ....

    Hi Guys, My quest to find a gold ring amongst a hoard of nickles finally paid off. I was beginning to believe the nickles would beat me into submission after digging a couple of hundred of them along with countless pull tabs and bits of foil. Here's a pic of the total finds for the day...

    A Lot of Nickles But No Gold :stars:

    Hi Guys, Here's a few digs from this past weekend. Everyday that you can get out in late December to detect is certainly a gift. I tried digging nickle hits in hopes of finding a gold ring or two. After finding 58 of them ... I figured out that it was hopeless. However, there were a couple of...

    Finds from last week ....

    Hi Guys, It's a cold and blustery day here in upstate New York so I thought I'd stay indoors and post a few finds from the past week. Many of my favorite hunting spots are located in the inner city "war zone" so it's a matter of judgement whether to risk life and limb for the possibility of...

    A few digs from this past weekend ...

    Hi Guys, Here's a few more finds from our locally hunted out parks. It looks like the lawn mower gave one of the Rosies a haircut. It's always fun to dig up a few Indians that aren't covered with corrosion. The two tokens are a mystery along with the button with a star in the center. It's all...

    Weekend Digs ...

    Hi Guys, Here's a few finds from this past weekend spent crawling in the dirt. Nothing spectacular but it's encouraging to see there's still a few bits of silver lurking in our vacuumed out parks. It's good to see all the recent finds posted on this forum. These antiquated Explorers can still...

    Mixed Bag of Weekend Finds ....

    Hi Guys, Here's a few digs from this past weekend. One of the side benefits of this hobby is never having to buy another pocket knife. I've collected enough to last a lifetime. Thanks for looking! DD

    Saturday's Digs ....

    Hi Guys, Here's a few finds from this past Saturday. I think all of the wheat pennies went into hiding (only found one). But the four silver dimes made up for it. Also managed to pop a couple of nice buttons out of the ground. These old hammered parks are still giving ... just takes a little...

    A few finds from a short hunt ...

    Hi Guys, I had a couple of hours to kill this past Sunday so I had to decide between riding the couch or hitting one of the locally hammered parks. To be honest, the couch nearly won. But I figured I'm only getting older and fatter so the exercise and fresh air would only do me good. I got to...

    Took my ATG for another swim in the lake ...

    Hi Guys, Here's a couple of pics from my latest swim with the AT Gold. The ol' hot spot keeps on giving. I managed to add a small 18K pendant along with another walker to the mix. We've hunted this spot for a few years and found quite a few old coins but no silver halves. This year we have...
