    Age of bracelet?

    Does anyone have any thoughts on how old this bracelet could be? I found it in the yard of a house dating to the 1890s. Unfortunately it has no makers or sterling silver mark. It's very small, maybe for a child. Found about 8 inches deep, Etrac thought it was a dime!

    Small metal plate

    Hello All! I found a bunch of these small metal plates at an old farm. They are non-ferrous, and I think they might be brass. One has what I believe to be the word "TRIANGLE" on it. I found them amongst a bunch of garbage, oyster shells, broken plates and bones. Could be the lid to a...

    Before and after...

    First time out this year, visited an old picnic area that I'd been wanting to check out. Wasn't expecting to find a V nickel, my first ever! The pennies are 1948 and 1918 d.

    Trashy Farm

    Hello all. I've been hunting an old farm house and barn site with my SE Pro on and off for the past few years. I've had a few decent finds there but the ground is littered with old nails, cans and junk. Yesterday I found 1960s can of Right Guard. I'd appreciate any suggestions on your favorite...

    After the snow melts...

    Hello, So for the first time since I bought my metal detector, the midwest has gotten a ton of snow and several days of below zero temperatures that have frozen the ground fairly deep. When everything thaws out, how will the depth of targets in the freeze zone be affected? Will they be...

    6" Excelerator Coil Tips

    Hello! I recently bought a 6" Excelerator coil for the SE Pro. I've used it a few times, but I'm looking for some tips on how to use it more effectively. One thing I noticed while air testing it was that depth detection seemed to increase when I switched from auto to manual sensitivity. I know...

    First Indians Ever!

    Here are the first Indians I've ever found. They were in a hole with this jack and wheatie. There was a two inch nail about four inches beneath the coins but the Explorer found them!

    Perplexing Park

    I've been hunting in a park I know to be over 100 years old. I've been using Bryce's settings from Andy Sabich's book, and swinging the SE Pro really slow. I have found a ton of clad from the 70s, 80s and 90s, but nothing older. I'm finding most of the coins at 6-8 inches deep. My question is...

    Bullet?

    Hello, This looks like a .45 caliber bullet but based on where I found it, I'm not sure. Found it in my own yard, really close to the surface! Thoughts?

    Elephants & Palm trees

    I found this at an old home site I believe to be at least early 1900s. It has elephants and palm trees stamped on it. It's non-ferrous. Reminds me of an old pill case. Any ideas?

    Thought it was silver but no

    Can anyone help me identify this? Found it an an old home site and thought for sure it was a coin. It has the number 1746 stamped on it but I'm pretty sure that's not a date. The area where I was detecting is not that old.

    Tiny but interesting

    Found this small piece near a very old road. Any thoughts? The edge of the larger side is reeded, and slightly concave.

    Not what I expected...

    Last week I found this sterling silver sacred heart medal a few feet from this dime. It gave the same reading as a dime, too. First piece of jewelry ever.

    SE Pro goes crazy for concrete

    Hello, Has anyone else noticed this phenomenon? My SE Pro starts going crazy in certain areas when it gets close to concrete or curbs. It doesn't happen all the time, and it can be operating normally on a spot on the same street and then bananas a few feet away. This continues even when I've...
