Went detecting yesterday and today at a buddies apartment because the weather is finally starting to get a little better here in NY. I decided to bring along my Whites Eagle Spectrum to try because I normally use a different machine, but I picked up the Eagle Spectrum for cheap a while back. For 20 years old the machine still works pretty dang well. The site is pretty trashy so that was tough trying to distinguish the tones because they were just jumping around, but I'm getting the hang of it....so on to the finds. I managed to find a 1963 Rosie, a 1941 Merc, and a 1943 Merc, a 1954 Dog tag, a little thing of cologne? (with stuff still in it), a Womans Brooch pin (which doesn't have any markings to my knowledge), and a slaymaker super lock with door hinge still attached...My buddy had the best find though..a 1936 D Silver Quarter.

Hey Bobby! congrats on the awesome finds! A couple years ago I found a brass slaymaker lock as well. Mine is from the 1920's.Bobby s said:

Nice finds, but you need to exercise a bit of caution when you pull them out of the ground. If it happened to be a rare date Merc you just rubbed away hundreds of dollars in value by rubbing the dirt off. Nice finds though and it's always a good day when you find more than one piece of silver.
