This afternoon I hit an out of town spot I hadn't hunted in years . I hit it for 2hrs. and managed to get one of those elusive Merc's (1943) and $1.55 in clad . I'll be hitting that spot again . :yes:

Been getting out a little more but not having any luck with silver or gold .Yesterday I hit some turf where I had previously hit silver for close to three hrs. I pulled out forty five cents in clad and that crusty ring that may be a Chuck E Cheeser . I like to get out and hunt for the sake of...

After giving it much thought , I'm in the process of acquiring a standard Teknetics T2 and would like to hear some of your experiences . Still keeping my Explorer SE and White's M6 though . :grin:

Beat the rain (kinda) . Hunted a wood chips tot lot for a couple of hours in drizzle and couple of short , light rains . I felt I gave the place a good cleaning again as I have recently hunted this area .I was using a Tesoro built Troy Shadow X-2 with a sandwich bag protecting the controls .The...

Had to get some cash from the bank today so I asked if they had any rolls of halves ,the teller said a guy came in about an hour ago and got the only three I had . My reply was dang , he's at it again , this guy's really putting a cramp in my style . To which the teller laughed .The teller in...

2 hrs. of Chips Hit the neighborhood park wood chips with the M6 for a couple of hrs. of fun today . I managed to snag a 925 ring with a few small stones left in it , a silver earring, $2.02 and some other common playground finds .The weather was nice . 8)

Money wise a smart move on both their parts . Sure is strange seeing the Kellyco ads .

The M6 scored well in 3hrs. of dirt and wood chips yesterday . $5.59 , a 1957 Canadian Nickel and a bit of trash. I found my second Dollar coin of the year also .The most unusual find was a quarter carefully drilled for weight distribution with a piece of yarn attached . I had no idea this was a...

I had a little bit of free time today so I hit a spot I haven't hit in quite awhile .It's a very small sand lot playground in a large park where you are allowed to detect on the grass but you can't dig \:hammer: :crazy: It's a real shame because it was the site of an old motel during the 50's...

Straight from the main office to my local branch . Tried seven dollars worth of Halves that my teller had at his station (no luck) and decided to play big time . I'll be posting the results by tomorrow .Iv'e never scored anything older than a 64 Kennedy at this . I kind of get the feeling I'm...

Hit one of my old tired spots this evening and was doing ok ( found the ring on the first dig) until the place got overun with a kids soccer team of about 30 kids and 3 coaches who thought they were Marine drill instructors . They made it a point to make those kids run around where I was ( on...

I found this hot rock last night . It's very heavy and magnetic but it doesn't look like any of the few pictures of meteorites I have seen . Anybody out there know if this is a meteorite ? It is definitely not a petrified turd that fell out of an airliner ( yes those are said to exist ).

I've watched a few videos were people are jiggling their probes in a hole like their trying to shake the last drop out of it , what's with this ? Does it make for a more accurate pinpoint ? I used to use the X-1 and I never had to go through all those tremors to locate a target . Seems like it...

I haven't been posting any finds lately as the good ones have been too far and few between . It got so bad I couldn't even bring myself to go hunting for awhile even after our brief heat spell ended . This weekend I was ready to go again . I put in two 5hr. days , the first with an Explorer SE...

I dug this up yesterday . It was about 5 deep about the size of a quarter and just covered with crusty corrosion . The M6 with the 4x6 shooter homed in on it loud and clear .Tarni-shield and a lot of elbow grease brought out way more features than I thought it would ( kind of sorry I didn't take...

Went back to the spot where I found the snake buckle and the two wheats . The best find was the plastic Police badge which was an eyeball find . I'm going to put it in my wallet so that way if I'm ever hassled by the man I can whip it out and use it along with my get out of jail free card...

Here's some of the more exciting lol stuff from the last couple of dirt and wood chip hunts . The older appearing snake buckle , the 2 wheats ( 35s,47s ) ,the toilet seat bolt and the blue racing car were dirt digs and the rest were wood chip finds . Dug some clad too . The ring is junk and the...
