Hi forum
I have been a lurker for a couple of years now learning to use my Explorer SE.I have been out of metal detecting for a number of years and have now gotten the bug again.
To make a long story short I still live in the area that I detected years ago and after looking through my earlier finds from back then came across a no date seated liberty quarter.The oldest coin I have found.15 years later I find myself scratching my head trying to remember where in the world did I find this one??Thanks Gary
 
I hear ya!! I was lucky enough when I started to put them in holders and put the date and name of the place on it. Just start all over, you should do well with the SE. Good luck!!!!!!
 
Hey, I feel your pain Gary.... I'm just getting back in after a 5-6 year hiatus myself. I also have been digging out the stuff I had thrown in boxes trying to remember where I found it, and wondering how I ever got permission to hunt some of those places...... Last week I ran across a pot metal object I had pitched in a box with some other stuff I had found and had never really cleaned up. When I first dug it up I thought it was a fake medal or part of a Buckle off an old Car Coat. It had words on it That said "Scottish Kings own Borderers". I typed it in Google to see what was up with it. Come to find out it is a hat badge from a famous Scottish regiment that got their name in 1887, but were around long before that..... It had been in the ground for quite some time, how it got to Southwest Missouri I'll never know...... And I don't have the slightest I idea where I found it.:rage: Picture is kind of blurry but here it is ....Hope your memory is better than mine..... Bill
 
I was out of the hobby for almost 20 year's before I jumped back in a couple of year's ago. Fortunately for me I kept a accurate record of all my fines except clad and junk. I still have a ledger with all the dates,condition and where I found it. I put tab's in the corner's seperating pennies from dimes etc. It's been a big help when looking back where thing's came from.
Good hunting,Gary
