Those are some really hefty spikes!

I don't really ever dig big iron any more. I used to, but after digging up things like a rear wheel from a steam engine, car hood from the 40's, and other junk...

Sorry, but this just has to be asked after holding up for 10 years-you mean the button or the wife's hair? :rofl:

Certainly some noteworthy finds, especially the buttons assuming you can show provenance. That Reale is pretty cool too with the marks in it. Still hoping to find one some day... ;) Probably have to...

Tat's a real piece of history, and I'm sure means something to the family that lost it. Good luck on the research and return! Keep us posted how it turns out. Thanks, for the story!

Odd that most people have no clue that NY is built over a fault line, then get all bent out of shape when they experience a little jiggle. Really, there's actually countless major and minor fault...

Well, some days it gold, other days it's just the fool's gold. Still, a cool button and what looks like part of a pocket watch chain. Regardless of finds, always good when one can get out swinging!

I was thinking if you go strictly for the target ID as an event, then probably keep all targets at about the same depth, maybe 4-6 inches. As for which targets, I was thinking using something along...

Hey Terry, good luck with setting up this event-I know how hard coordinating something like this can be.

As for a really fun event, with no digging needed. Have a test bed layout with maybe a...

Great finds Tony! Just proves persistence sometimes really pays off. Those LCs really are hard to come by in the Midwest, and I've only ever found 2 US LCs. First one found was insanely deep (~24")...

Hello Terry and welcome to the forum! I have heard about your organization some years ago when I heard about veterans not only needing the equipment, but mentors as well to help them learn the sport...

Yep, I got the CTX charged and made it out on a nice day near 70 degrees for maybe 45 minutes before the call to come home came. :shocked01:
Today we are under another winter weather advisory...

Just amazing what you guys find in the "old country"! Great hunt for sure, congrats!

Great seeing those new machines waking up old sites again! Only a few years ago 12-16 hours swinging was the norm for me, but now I'm down to maybe 8 hours on a good day before the fatigue really...

That's certainly a museum piece! But, I really question how that old Garrett machine worked being mounted to an aluminum pole by those big metal angle brackets?

Thanks for the info! I have met a few Mormons over the years, and I will say that they were all very nice people from what I experienced, but their religious tenets are a bit....odd? Since I enjoy...

Hello all,
I hope this day finds you well. I'm posting because I've been researching St. George Utah where I am currently interviewing for a new job promotion. This is in the SW corner of the...

I agree genealogy can be addictive, but it's also so very easy to get on the wrong track with one misspelled name or incorrect bit of information. I had done a search once several years ago and there...

OK, so here's the lock info for anyone who is interested. The lock is made by Thirard FTH based in Fressenneville, France. This particular lock was supposedly to commemorate the first flight of the...

Working for someone else, probably not much outside fast food. But you can always become self employed and set your own hours. My plan is to run a videography business. Shooting video for commercials...

Amazing find! What I also find amazing is that you have family history dating back that far in the states, not to mention the continuity of having that bit of land for the entire time. Being that I...

Holy cow, those are the finds dreams are made of! Congrats on an incredible hunt! I don't know which find I would love the most, but believe it or not I think the ring is probably one of the most...

Tony,
First off, congrats on the retirement! Does that come with a new machine? I heard somewhere all newly retired guys are issued a metal detector and a section of beach. :grin:

Secondly I...

Hello everyone!

I know it's early in the year yet but with our recent thaw I'm starting to think about spring hunts already. But what I was also thinking about was what I would hope to find this...

Glad to see this post pop back up today. There is one denomination, if it could be considered a separate denomination from the Nickle is the half dime. Would love to see a 1792 half disme in the...

That really looks tasty! Probably a good thing I'm not a baker. I would make sure all 12 rings of that cake were as solidly cemented together as possible just to see the look on the couple's faces!...
