Always wondered how that stuff gets in an open field like that. Always when detecting a huge field, do you just sweep in a random pattern, or is their some method to the madness? Anyways nice to see...
Their smiles says it all. Great job and thanks for the good PR you are doing for this hobby.
Thanks JTGold, that would explain the hole in it and the wire I removed. I guess my modern brain equated it to an ice tea bottle lid. Thinking about it now, makes alot more sense being a rose tag...
Great story, and even greater finds... congrats !!!
I hope you continue to rescue many more coins.
Searched a house that was built in 1923. I had visions of finding some good treasures. Spent 2 hours swinging and came up with this cap for tea. Tried to research it, but came up blank....
Looks like the 4 year wait paid off. Great finds and hope you find many more.
Quite nice drawings. Thanks for sharing with us. Is that a 1916 D dime by the way?

Great find. I would say it was a lucky day for 2 people, you and the owner of the ring. I can only imagine the look on his face when presented with his long lost ring. This makes the hobby so...
Thanks for the info on the test kits. I will check it out.
Out today searching a large totlot. Under just a an inch of wood chips I find this:

Measures 2 feet long and weighs 12.8 grams. My wife says silver because of the clasp. There are...
Welcome to the forum. I bet that 30 minutes and a wheatie whetted your appetite for more detecting. I found my first wheatie about a week ago, and now hoping for my first silver. Learn your machine...
I have mine on order from China. $2.25 with free shipping. Don't know how they can do it.
As I am still fairly new to detecting I have been doing totlots to learn about my ACE 250, but today I ventured to a vacant lot in an older section of the city. Withing a few minutes I found this:

Hi Arq
Welcome to the forum
I too am fairly new to detecting and this forum. Lots of friendly people with great advice here.
I like to see what people are finding, as for me only newer coins but I...

I have been reading the posts and find you all seem to be a friendly bunch.
