    silver & gold at the ball field

    I went to this ball field last week for an hour and found the 1935 mercury dime, 1925, 1942 & 1944 wheat pennies and 5 other pennies and went back after the rain and found a 14K chain that weighed 15.19 grams between 3rd base and home and 54 cents change. Just had a couple hours and was finding...

    Trash question

    I need some advice about a site that is so full of metal trash it's driving me crazy. Switched from the stock coil to the 5 X 8 and now probably will switch to the sniper coil on the At/Pro which I hate to do due to the size of this lot. Slowed my swing way down, but trash over load is driving...

    last two river trips

    These are my finds from my last two river trips. Short trips, but enjoyed them both except for cold feet. I believe the ring is stainless steel and it rang up a strong 64 on the at/pro. The ear ring was in the 50's, if memory serves me correct. plus 2 coins made up my first trip and 13 coins...

    Found 4 dimes and 17 pennies and gold colored bracelet from two last trips to the park. Not gold plated, just gold colored. Sure enjoyed finding it and would have been proud if it were gold. HH.

    chest waders suggestion and clad day Tuesday

    I bought some chest waders from a store and they are frog togs type and lasted just about 2 years. The lady at the company is willing to give me a discount and free shipping, but I'm in such a hurry to do some dirt fishing in the water I'm thinking of stopping at an outdoor store in Albany...

    Went to the river, Tuesday

    I finally put the At/Pro together and went to the river for almost 3 hours Tuesday. The water was so cold, the fish had coats on. Miss my chest waders. Garrett replaced my stereo/mono headphones and the ones they sent were loud. You don't hear the little high pitched sound like you used to...

    Bad eggs spoil the basket.....

    I was reading this historical paper that comes out several times per year and was upset by an article if true about members of our hobby. I plan to write them a letter next week when I have more time and try to educate the people who read this paper that if this is true, it only represents a...

    Found a ring Tuesday

    I managed to get out for a few hours Tuesday and my At/Pro was acting up and I've had a small leak in my chest waders that was annoying, but it turned into a catastrophic leak and filled up both legs with water and was spurting like a geyser out of my left boot when I walked out of the river. I...

    Yard full of noisy Canadians.

    I came home from town the other day after running some errands and four Canadians were in my yard and boy were they noisy. Tried to get some photos and see if anybody on the forum recognized them, but they got even louder and flew away. Had another Canadian blocking the bridge to town this...

    Off topic-Gator attack in Fl.

    Florida woman stops alligator attack with a small Beretta pistol. This is a story of self-control and marksmanship by a brave, cool-headed woman with a small pistol against a fierce predator. What is the smallest caliber that you would trust to protect yourself? A Beretta Jetfire...

    First silver coin of 2015

    I went to town and had about an hour before dark to detect and the first coin I found was a 1952 Roosevelt dime, 1972 quarter and 6 pennies including a 1952 wheat. Hope to post some photos this week. The 1952 dates are special to me because that was my late brother's year of birth. I was in a...

    off topic-my first error coin

    I was setting around the house last week going thru my change and looking thru the 1998, 1999 & 2000 Lincoln cents for one of the errors in the book Strike it Rich with Pocket Change and found a die clash error. It's not much value if any, but it's my first error coin and it made me happy...

    Finds from several months ago

    I've had a hard time managing my time lately and mostly when I get to go to the river I only have a few hours here and there. Found some clad, fake jewelry, fishing lures and lots of trash. Found a side winder without any hooks that has scales imprinted on the lure and didn't get any photos of...

    Titanium stainless steel ring and clad today

    Went to the river today and saw a huge snake where I go into the water. Found a titanium stainless steel ring: TMA-316L-China and it had a faint skull & crossbones on it. Hoped it was white gold, but was pretty sure it was stainless steel and checked it out on a search engine. 6 quarters, 1...

    Met a fellow dirt digger yesterday

    I finally made it back to the river and found hardly anything until I started across the park to talk to a neighbor about a propeller I found. Saw this man and his wife and little girl and didn't pay much attention and another couple were fishing off one of the docks. Then I heard the sound of...

    Rough day at the river

    Got some more trash out of the river Saturday. I thought it was going to be in the high-60's to low 70's, but the high was 56 degrees with a wind blowing out of the North East with over 30 mile an hour gusts. Highest waves I ever saw in the river and they beat me up something fierce and even...

    Went back to the park Thursday and found this 50 pfennig coin with bird on back and Nazi swastika on back and it's made out of zinc. Found 22 other coins, little car with no wheels, part of old cap gun and usual trash. Took a photo this morning before church and thanked God for the treasure all...
