Hey everyone, hope 2014 is a great year for finds ! Recently, the show " American Picker's " came to my and other members that live near the Springfield, Massachusetts area !! They located a house that had an old Indian Motorcycle buried in the back yard :yes:. Did anyone see the episode ...

:) Hey everyone, on July 28th, I posted a top called Don't Overlook Those Common Coins. Well, recently a NEW coin variety has been discovered on a 1983-P Washington Quarter called The Spitting Eagle . It's a Die Clash Error. Here's the link to the Article ...

Don't overlook those common Coins Hey everyone ! There's one thing I want to talk about that I haven't heard anyone mention before and that's looking over every coin you find, whether it's a Colonial or a coin from the 1800's and 1900's with a good Loop. In the past few months, since I haven't...

Hey everyone. As you know, Gold and Silver Prices are way down compared to not that long ago. My question to everyone is how does much does Gold and Silver prices effect Common coins . When I say Common , I mean coins that aren't Rare, Error, or probably Key Dates ...

Reststop Finds I got a chance to get out this morning before it got too hot . I stopped at a rest stop where an old house use to be and spent a half hour in an area that I hadn't hit before and got a few newer coins and these two oldies. This is my first 1909VDB Wheatie ! I looked for an S but...

:) Hey everyone, I've seen a few members who have found Chinese Coins in the past and I just wanted to say that PCGS now has a price guide for some of those coins but most look like their not the real old ones. I don't know anything about foreign coins so you'll have to check it out. I did...

Hey everyone I've been thinking of doing another one of my Contests . This is a Contest that I don't think anyone has done before, we will see. Details to follow . MY question is would you rather see ONE LARGE PRIZE or Multiple Prizes. . I would like to leave this option up to you, the members...

>:/ >:# >{ >:{ :shocked04:verreaction: :beatdown: :boxing: I pissed off to say the least !!! I was hoping that Randy Savage Metal Detecting show was going to be cancelled. They give the hobby 100% a bad name and go against everything us good detectorists have worked hard at getting the hobby...

I haven't found any in a while but I found this unique one several years ago and haven't seen one shaped like it since . I've only seen round and egg-shaped or oval but none that were Acorn shaped . This is the best website I could find about bells. classicbells.com

Last week I said I found a IH that I had trouble getting a good Pic of, well I finally cleaned up the most I want to before it gets worse. It's ONE of the worst Indian Heads I've found to date but It's definitely an 187? Can anyone see what the last number is ? It looks like either a 1873...

Ok this may seems stupid coming from a seasoned Metal Detectorist but why is it that there are so many buttons found ?? I realize that everything they wore in the 19th/ 18th Century had buttons on them and plenty of them. What I don't understand is why were so many lost. Were their sewing...

<: Yesterday was such a beautiful day, I had to get out for a couple hours while my teenage son was sleeping and it was well worth it. Things started off slow with a lot of junk signals in the cornfield I was in . I think my machine needs some adjusting unless there's a lot of fertilizer and...

In my spare time I like to watch others MD'ing videos and no one makes them better then Bill Ladd . Just got to Utube and Type in his name and he has a tone of great videos to watch. This is my favorite. http://youtu.be/p3CmzAyYERY

I just want to just posted a couple nice pics I hope to detect soon before the leaves and grass grows.

|:cheering: Hey guys! I found this several years ago and I haven't been able to figure it out. Most of us have heard of Pratt & Whitney but this as you can see says Pratt Porter & Co. Hartford. For those that don't live in CT. , Hartford is our Capital and where Pratt & Whitney Co. is. I found...
