    Fargo finds?

    We have seen a lot of detectors up here in Fargo since 1973 when I started. The detector I used was a whites coinmaster 3 which did not disc and when I was able to get many of my gold rings as there were very little pultabs, but we had the crown caps and had to learn to tell the difference ...

    Sovereign modification

    The secret to the Sovereign is learning it well, I have always said that the ones that design the Sovereigns know how it will work the best. That said I bought one that had a mod from someone done to it and tried it out and found the tones were set so most target sound higher pitched, it was...

Myself the unit I have is adjustable voltage and I use salt water and turn up the voltage once in a while while watching it so you dont over do it. I have a good...

    Good looking SLQ

    Just curious is this 1917 SLQ the one many had a problem with as it was bare breast , then in 1918 they were changed and liberty breast was covered up. Any Standing lib quarter with a readable date is a excellent find and hard to come by. Rick

    Interesting find yesterday....

    It is a key fob that were advertising also, it had a chain on it where you put your keys on it and if you found it and sent back to the advertiser on the fob they had a list who had this fob number and sent it back the owner. These are always a good find as many advertiser are no longer around...

    Any clue what this is?

    It is called a sickle gard that is used on the sickle mower and even on swathers and combine to cut the hay, crops and even weeds. Up here in ND we are a farming community, in my younger year i help to replace many of these when I worked for A farmer.

    Factory setting

    Odd Find

    I think this is the same thing I had back in the late 50s. You use it to show you can turn a nickel into a dime, you put it on top of a dime as it fits easy and with it laying on a table you have a magnet in the palm of your hand and this will pick the nickle up so only a dime is left. It was...

    Ramrod or cleaning rod ?

    We have found several of these while detecting some of the out of the way area. I have even one that was made out of some copper fitting and showed it to our local Sherrif to make sure it was OK to have. Was told it is OK as long as there is not pot or resedue in it. The one pictured here does...

    Can Someone Date this Allis-Chalmers Key Fob?

    I feel it is a watch fob because of they were popular in until around 1940 as the slot is made for a leather strap. Now from the looks of the tractor to me it looks like a 40 something Allis Chalmers . That is my opinion anyway. Rick
