    Mixer: Silver and Clad

    Steve hit the beach, I hit the dirt. Steve found the silver and I found the clad. Steve will be posting his finds later. This is my largest haul for clad in a single hunt (4 hours...$17 and change), so I thought I'd post it. The cross is not precious metal. I'm not sure what it is, but I'll...

    Tiffany Silver

    OK, so today Napa Steve and I went to my secret spot (I don't keep any secrets from my partner, Steve). This is the spot where I found a 10Gm, 3/4 inch wide, silver ring last week happydance02. We both found a moderate amount of clad. Steve found a mood ring, two interesting tokens, and a piece...

    Silver Corrosion Cleanup

    I first met Napa Steve MDing in a soccer field in our home town of Napa, California. I asked him if he wanted to partner up, and the rest is history. The first time out together, he and his brother, Dale, took me to their “Secret Spot”. Steve and Dale had found several old silvers at this...

    I think mine is broke too!!!

    All my machine seems to be doing is coming up with high VDI's. I found the honkin' 10 Gm Silver Ring at a ball field in a near by town today. Some of you may remember my last silver and gold, both found minutes apart a couple of weeks ago, were found on another ball field in another town. I'm...

    Walker, Buffs, Roosevelt and Merc

    Yes, ladies and gentlemen. Today was a very good day for Napa Steve and I at the beach. I spotted this particular beach last spring and have been wanting to give it a try. I thought it would be a good idea to share it with my good buddy, Steve (sorry you had to work today, Dale...but someone has...

    Two Silvers Within Two Feet

    I went hunting in a school yard today for about an hour and came up with some interesting silver. The ring, as you can see is 925, and I suspect so is the silver and Turquoise figure on what I think is a lighter case. The lighter case itself is also non-ferrous, and so must be either silver or a...

    Amazing Backyard Finds

    My father owns two adjoining lots, with a little house on one lot, on the north coast of California. We lived in that house from the time I was one to three-years-old (1948 thru 1951). The property has been in the family for around 100 years. 100 years ago, it had a barn on it. My dad has always...

    Sunday Metal Detecting

    OK…So Napa Steve and I spent the entire day Saturday metal detecting. We didn’t find anything more than a little clad. But at the end of the day, when it was either time to go home or be reported missing, we found a very promising location that we planned to hit on Sunday. Sunday rolls...

    ...Arrrrrggggg....

    OK, so I don't know where else to post this to get any attention, but I'm not sure it matters. Thank you to Nitro and Mel for trying to help. When I try to resize a photo in Adobe Photoshop, it resizes the photo....by clipping it so you can only see a piece of the photo. When I check my mail and...

    Navigating the American Detectorist Forum

    I have to thank Mel (M-Taliesin) for showing us newcomers to AD how to post photos at this site. Tanacat also tried to explain another method to me for doing the same thing, but I'm still trying to figure that one out. HOWEVER... I have a modest suggestion to the Administrators of AD that...

    Hello From California

    Hello Everyone, I'm new to this forum, but it appears that many of my aquaintances (I'll take the liberty to call them friends) have begun posting on this site. So, least I be swimming against the tide, I thought I'd come over and see what you'all are doing. Napa Steve and I had a great day...
