Da Yooper congratulations on a great season from the lower half.

Beale, last spring I sold some of my copper and silver finds and bought a new GTI 2500. One peice I sold for $200. I have 4 peices right now that will sell for $150- $275 each. So depending on what you find you can have a good return on some of your finds. The half breeds bring in the most money.

R-n-R , You'll have alot of time to do some research on new places to hunt. It will be May when you can fire up the detector.

Not just for the $$$ but for the collectibility. And what's these half-breeds??? Anyting I can find up here?? (Menominee,MI) I have several machines, - see list below... Next one will be an XLT E.

Half breeds are native copper with silver running through it. Float copper can generate some BIG BUCKS. I have seen peices weighting in at 300lbs. Yes you should be able to find all this right where you live Happy Hunting
