    Nano second surprise!!!! Update…

    Unfortunately a return may be statistically unobtainable. IF, and thats IF, the date is 1871 then it most likely came from the old houses nearby that were demolished in order to expand the Greek houses and the independent living dorms a long time ago. I have contact info now for the Facilities...

    Nano second surprise!!!! Update…

    UPDATE!!!! Got s call back from the university guys. I had a Geologist and an Archeologist with differing opinions. They have an instrument available to them for research purposes, not for walk in folks off the street. A preemptive test was taken to satisfy their curiosity and the result was the...

    90 minutes of weird

    Had a last minute chance to get out so loaded up and went! Decided old city park as generally the big trees give a bit of a windbreak. 39 degrees and light wind, ground was pretty saturated so easy to dig. First thing out the gate? A clad quarter at 3” deep and note the half silver and half...

    Legend Iron Filter Question

    I think thats more for iron soils. I’ve seen similar videos and I couldnt really tell a difference either but when in iron soil and putting a good target in the ground it seems easier to hear/find the good target. Just my experience.

    1st cell phone find

    I found a flip phone in the old arboretum on campus. Even tho it was totally toast there are valuable metals in them that can be salvaged. Sounds like you found a reputable site and I would recycle it for that offer.

    Dandy button from last weekend

    Does the green indicate a copper element to it? Possible era? Cool find!

    Few Cold Weather Finds: Gold/Silver/Masonic Fob

    Dave, I would still enroll in a class. I research as well but have a tendency to research what I find and then determine if worth going back. Im lucky here in that the local historical society has a lot of info and old photos and stories. The university has even more info in their collections...

    Rare

    Them antique finds fig in my shot glass right nice! Wonder if that would suffice to make the whiskey taste more aged? Hmmm

    Score / double score

    Conn. is still on our bucket list for the fall colors. Not sure I can wait that long to pick up my new, then possibly well used, detector. 🤔😂😂

    Score / double score

    And I just bought a new truck, she’s never gonna understand. Wonder if I order, delete all the email confirmations, use that secret credit card, and find some guy with an unmarked truck to deliver it, if I can get away with it. HAVE YOU MET MY WIFE? Im dead meat……

    Finds from the old farm

    Gotta love the older military memorabilia. More history to explore and research!! Im to the point in the hobby that learning the history of the piece is more fun than how it got there or dropped by whom (unless there is an Elvis connection) 😂

    Last couple hunts.

    Put in perspective those two rings on the arm look more like hoola hoops!!!! Nice finds for sure….

    Lucky Half Cent

    Thats the difference between out west and back east (as we call it), if I were to find something that old its a sure bet Lewis or Clark dropped it!! Good find!

    Bright spot in a slow hunt

    You dont hear much about 18k finds anymore! That should keep you in bottle beer for awhile 😂😂

    Afternoon hunt today

    Gold is gold. I found that Catholic pendant and thought it was brass or the likes until it was suggested to have a jeweler look at it. His conversation started, “Well I have good news….” Never say never until someone with experience and the right tools says otherwise!!! Cool ring for sure.
