    Newbie finds for 2015 $$$$$

    Well this was my first year metal detecting and I will say it is a lot of fun! Nothing better than metal detecting outdoors with some sun shining down on you and a cool summer breeze at your back! Unfortunately I didn't get out as much as I would have liked to but for the amount of time I spent detecting I would say I did good this year for it being my first 
    Overall I would say my best find would have to be the platinum ring I found, helped pay for the detector itself. After that it would be the junior police Badge I found at an old elementary school. Definitely planning on keeping up with the hobby! Happy hunting everyone!!!

    MoneyMan-

    Nice finds! Not a bad hall for the year.

    I like the kinfe, it looks to be in pretty nice condition.

    I am from San Jose also, if you ever want to go out hunting sometime, don't hesitate to let me know.

    Take care,
    Ben
