Today we where out there for about 3 hrs. The targets are really getting scarce but I managed to find a few . The pooch had a stellar day of stick fetching and dropping loads lol . I ended up with a 52D Rosie ,56D Wheat , 4 Memorials , 4 Zincolns , 3 screwcaps and a couple of other pieces of...

Anyone checking those Coinstar coin returns ? I always make it a point to whenever I go shopping . I haven't had any luck for awhile but today I got a silver Rosie and a newer Asian coin . :grin:

I was Dog tired after a five hour hunt yesterday at the scraped lot I've been hitting lately . They had scraped the entire lot since my last hunt there and I figured it should be good for at least a couple of silvers WRONG !! All I managed was two wheats , 6 memorials 2 modern tokens , a few...

After a very dissapointing silverless 3 hr. afternoon hunt at Golden Gate Park yesterday , I hit a local pounded spot for 2hrs. today . I needed a silver fix VERY badly . The Explorer SE got in my good graces again by giving me a faint , tingly chirp on a 7 deep , on edge 61D Rosie . <: Not a...

Didn't hunt on thanksgiving day and only got in about 1 1/2 hrs at a hunted out spot the next day and only found some junk and about 12 cents . My wife told me Saturday that she noticed a lot that I hunt had been scraped so Saturday and Sunday I got about 7hrs. in on it . I've hunted this lot...

I hope these pictures can at least give you a small taste of the serenity this beach gives me . :groovy:

So I'm showing my latest gold ring find to my Son and he says, you're not going to believe what I found yesterday . He had eyeball found one at his work (what are the odds?) . :shocked03: They are plated copper!! As you can see the ring I found is now starting to lose it's plating also . Oh...

Went back to where I found the last one on Thursday , stayed with the program and dug all signals . I normally wouldn't have dug this signal because it sounded like a raspy zinc penny .It read 52 screwcap on the M6's screen. Today I was using the 9.5 coil . Not many coins out there anymore as...

Not many signals at this park anymore so for the two hours I had to hunt I decided I would dig all the signals I could . :yes:

For the first time in my metal detecting career I actually knocked on a strangers door and asked for permission to hunt the city owned curb strip in front of the house .A nice lady came to the door and when I asked her reply was sure honey go ahead .You could have knocked me over with a feather...

Today I went to one of my nearby tired out safe places a place where Gangstas can't drive by . Just a peaceful out of the way park where there is a tennis court , a baseball diamond and a lot of grass for dogwalking , picnicking and the folks there are even nice to metal detectorists (...

In the quest to find the elusive silver I've been driving to my old neighborhood and some of it's nearby areas the last few weeks . Not the best of places to be hunting in these or even good economic times .Today I managed to get in a 3hr. hunt at an old school I attended briefly in the fifties...

Well you've come to the right place . lol This represents 4 hours on 2 hunts at 1 spot using 2 different detectors .This is from a large dirtpile that had been flattened . This spot had previously given me a 54s Roosie a couple of wheats and a little clad with even yet another different detector...

This is about a week's worth of finds from numerous short hunts . No big deal but I want to keep in practice on how to post in case I find something worth posting . lol The two silver Rosies are both 54s , the Merc's date is unreadable but I'll take her . The wheats are 44s,46s and 55? I found...

Hit a hunted out turf spot for about 3Hrs.(that's the crusty clad on top and including the bullet casing). This particular spot gave me a silver Roosie last week but none today or yesterday . Then after dinner I hit a small wood chips playground and got the very fresh shiny money the sandal...

I did another one of my dirt /wood chips combo hunts .The best find of the chips was a silver ring . It's stamped 925 and something else that I can't make out .The dirt gave up two wheats a 34' and a 45' and the majority of the $1.44 clad that was gathered . This time I hunted for 3hrs. The ring...

After a busy day of Honey do's and gotta do's I had about an Hr. and a half of light left and figured I wasn't going to find anything sitting at home . So I grabbed the M6 and headed to the nearest wood chips .I figured if I found 4 or 5 clads out of there I would be doing good . Well I actually...

Well , I went back to the spot I've been pounding and managed to pull out another silver , a 62D Roosie . This time I put the 6x8 SEF coil on the Explorer SE and put in 4 1/2 hrs. of low and slow .The signals were far and few between and most were next to tree roots which made for a real fun...

I'm still hitting that same spot that I found my last two silvers and wheats .I've gotten in two more hunts since I last posted .I didn't post because one day was just a little over a couple more bucks in clad and three wheats 46,56 and 57 and the next day was about a buck and a half in clad . I...

I put another 4 hrs. into the spot where I found the Merc' two days ago . I had visions of putting my coil over more silver than I did but it didn't work out that way . Maybe next time . I ended up with 62' silver Roosie, 2 - 58'Wheats a 63' Canadian penny , $2.50 in clad and a whole lot of junk...
