Friday I was able to get back out to a spot I hunted last month where I pulled a LOT of wheats but zero silver. Today, when I dug a couple wheats I happy. When I dug a silver Rosie I was extremely happy. When I dug the Walker I was ecstatic, and then the Morgan came up I was in shock.
I still...
After being forced to spend WAY to much time away from detecting, I finally got back out to the beach I have been hunting for so long. My return yields another amazing pile of garbage and a nice gold band for my efforts.

The Corps of Engineers finally re-opened the gates to the lake beaches, so it was time to hit them again! This time I was trying a new to me Excalibur 800 instead of my trusty old White's SM2.
There were a lot of pulltabs, but for once I didn't dig a single bobby pin, hair barrett, nail, or...
OK, so I finally got the time to get my video together from my last couple hunts last week.
These hunts were my first run with the Sunray X5 coil on my E-Trac. Overall, I was impressed!

I was finally able to get out today for some tecting! The weather kept threatening to dump on me at any moment but it stayed dry.
I was born on a Friday the 13th, so it has always been my lucky day and today was no exception.
Silver trifecta! E-Trac just keeps finding them!
This week I hit a new park that I have been ignoring for some reason all these years. Oh yeah, the neighborhood kept scaring me away!
OK, it's not as bad as I thought and it's holding some nice prizes!
Here is a video of the finds as well as a picture of the goodies!
SLQ plus friends thanks...
Before the rains moved in, I was determined to squeeze in a bit of hunting. I drove by the park construction and decided that since nothing had changed recently I would try for someplace new.
Do you have one of those places that you drive past all the time, and every time you think I need to...
After hunting a couple new spots and striking out I found my way back to the the park under construction which I have renamed my Giving park because it just keeps on giving up the finds.
I'm not finding silver on every trip but I at least find a couple wheaties to keep teasing me back. Someone...
Well, after my second hunt at the Barber quarter park was a complete bust I went back to my last silver spot to see if I could find some more. Turns out that there was more to be found, and probably even more still hiding.
More construction zone silver with the E-Trac
I'm always searching for...
Today I was in a small nearby town for business. I decided to hit the park just to see what was there. I didn't have any hopes of anything old, but thought I might find some good clad and hopefully a ring.
It didn't take long at all to hit a brand new first for me! Sadly it was the only thing...
While in a nearby town yesterday, I had some time to kill. Since there's no better way to kill time than detecting, I headed over to a spot I have hunted before. I really thought I had pulled all the silver out of here, but aparently I was wrong!
E-Trac finds some luchtime silver
One more beautiful day, a few more hours of dirt fishing. I started off at a 100+ year old house site. Found a lot of clad including a great pocket spill, but nothing old. Next I went to a park that I noticed had recently had some ground work done. I went to scraped spot where the pulled out the...
The weather in my area has been very nice lately which allowed me to go hunting New Years eve, New Years day and today.
NY eve I hit a brand new park in an old part of town and came out with a beautiful '39 Mercury dime.
Jan 1 I went out for more. I found a couple wheats and a 1912 notary...
Well I have just gotten back into the turf hunting recently. The Army took away all my spring hunting time, and the summer was too dang hot and dry!
Got out to the the HS practice field for some more detecting, hoping for some more jewelry today. After a couple hours, a gentleman comes up and...
