    Loaned out detector finds it's target

    Not a big deal and no pictures, but a win for MDer's in my opinion ... My Sister calls me on Friday and says her Husband's brother lost his wedding ring in a corn field on Friday. He was cleaning out a plugged combine head and throwing the husk/weeds, and realized his ring was gone. They...

    Farm house hunts

    1) How have you done overall at farm yard hunts? 2) Your favorite coin hunting sites > farm site, in town yards, parks, fair grounds, others? I like to hunt farm yards, but for the amount of time I put in, I find few coins. I have come to the conclusion that if I want to find coins, the farms...

    One Indian - two questions

    This is truly embarrassing, but I just got back from my first hunt of the year. A school that was built in the 1930's maybe 40's. I pulled lots of clad and wheats last year, and some silver. Today I got 50 cents of clad, and an Indian Cent. Two questions ... 1) the front is pretty crusty -...

    Probably my last hunt for the year ...

    Snow in Iowa coming ... Got out Friday, first to a private yard. I would guess the house was built around the 20's (actually almost directly across the street from historic Grant Wood's home). Small yard, with alot of flower beds and etc. Only took only 1 hour to cover the grass areas. Got 6...

    3rd time to the elementary school

    A 1956-D and a 1934 wheat, one wheat cut in half, and a 'Good For 5c In Trade' token, the back says '3122' looks pretty old - maybe 30's or 40's ??. I think I have covered just about all ground at this site, so I will be looking for another place to go. Had two strange hits. The first sounded...

    Hit the elementary school again ...

    This school isn't very old ... maybe built in the 40's? Got a silver quarter last week. Today tried another side of the school on a hill that is now shaded by trees and the grass doesn't grow well and the rain wash dirt down off the hill. 9 wheats (35, 41, 42, 42, 44, 44-D?, 45, 52-S?, 52-D) a...

    two older farm houses

    Went to my Sister's so we could hunt two older farm house yards that she and her husband rent the farm ground. The first gave up the dog tax tag (1961) and one wheat. The second gave up the other two wheats and two indians (1906 and 1907). This was my Sister's first time detecting - she used...

    Sunday 1.5 hours at the elementry school

    Hit a elementry school this morning that was built in the 40's or 50's. I had been there once before and got loads of clad and 1 wheat. Today I was pulling loads of clad again, so much that I started passing on the zinc penny hits and started swinging faster then I should when I heard a faint...

The old parks I hit that have alot of new activity, I find that I get a huge...

    conductive vs ferrous sounds question ...

    I am wondering how many use conduct or ferrous? Do most of the highly experienced users use ferrous? Are there times you switch depending on trashy or iron invested vs. clean sites, or any other reason? Just curious - I have used an EX II since spring after switching from a ACE250, and don't...
