You can trade your Fobs for old silver coins.

Nice interesting things my friend..You have done well.

I really Love Watch-Fobs and Tokens. The Tokens are interesting especially if a person can get some history on the Business Name or Person. The Fobs are Very Ornate and the one's you have are very nice and in very good shape. I especially like the Dozer one and also that Medal you found. You have a VERY NICE COLLECTION there Daveo and you should be very proud of all them great finds you unearthed. Hope 2008 is just as good for you as 2007 was. Good Luck and HH.

One Question. When you made most of these finds, were you digging everything that wasn't Iron or were these finds the kind that read like Coins? Just Curious if I have passed up many great finds like those. Good Luck and HH.

James . i dig everything that has a repeatable beep, except on my se when its a hi tone and the cursor is in the bottom right cornor , i used to dig those , but it was always junk. some of the digs rang as coins though , the fobs and some of the jewlery . the toy guns , well im not quite sure but they were a medium pitch and i dug one once that turned out to be just that , a toy gun and i kept in mind how it sounded and i guess i just got lucky , but i do dig about everything, i got a flash gordon strato-wagon , this year at 8 inches , sounded like the guns did and i wasnt gettin anything that day so i said what the hell , might as well dig it . ya never know waht it is till you dig it up all of these in the pics were marginal junk signals . except for the spoons , they were a higher pitch the little one on top is sterling silver , it rang hi and true. i know i miss jewlery quite often , havent got that down yet , but i will , i use the stock coil and all metal and sens about 28 to 30 . ferrous . i ll get the sunray 8 inch coil this winter and go back to all those sites again and see what i missed .

Now for me to start digging a bit more Junk Signals and see if I can't find me some Hidin' Treasure's as well. Thanks again. Good Luck and HH.

I know, I was teasing, they're real cool. I have a fair ground I'm hunting where just about everytime I've gone, I've found yet another piece of this toy gun, I'm slowly piecing back together. The plow chopped it up good and it's spread as far as a 100 yards.
