Yeah I tested the ETRAC with some clad and silver nickels and noticed the lower tone. I appreciate the advice on that and the target ID numbers. In a few months I will be deadly. |:cheering:

I haven't found any gold yet nor any many nickels but I will endevour to correct that directly.
Glad to hear you are safe Jack. :waving:
Went out early this morning and began digging :detecting: before it became too hot. I hunted a corner lot where the owner has scraped about three inches of the topsoil off to prep for new sod. I...
Thanks to all for the attaboy!! :grin:
Ok. I have been traveling a bit to a new spot and wow! I unearthed a Cavalry Bugle near an old Fort in Wyoming. The Maker's Mark says: J. Howard Foote New York and Chicago. I haven't been able to...
:perfect10:
Now how are you ever going to top that?
I am going to stay tuned and find out.....WTG
No it wasn't a box of buttons. The place where I was hunting is near an old Fort. Lots of activity. :twirlingeyes:
One more pic...

:grin: This is what this hobby is all about!!

Cool finds!! I haven't seen a 45-70 since Tackleberry in the Movie Police Academy. lol good times.
Awesome!! :cheering: I am looking forward to see what else you pull out of that spot! Keep 'em coming!! WTG
Awesome!!! :cheering: Those are some great coins!! WTG!!
Nice Mercs! I've only found two so far. That one is sure purty. :cheering:
I found 5 of those knapsack hooks yesterday and they look almost identical to yours. Mine are definitely Union Cavalry found near a Fort in Wyoming. :dontknow:
Nice finds! Great pics! Looks like a scene out of The Temple Of Doom. :twirlingeyes:
I got started early yesterday...really, really early. First I stopped off at the property owners' house to let them know I was there and chatted for a few minutes. Then, off to dig.
Well, all I can...
Thanks for all the encouragement Jack. Coming from you it means a lot! The musket balls are worth around $2100, the rounds midrange around $1450, more if I revealed the history, date and location....
This is the weirdest looking rifle round I've ever seen. It's so skinny!
Some kind of axe or hatchet?
Another angle...
