I haven't been able to get out for a few weeks, so yesterday I decided to go out for just a few hours. I'm so glad I did!! I still can't drive, so Noah drove us out to one my favorite old towns. We got a yes at the very first house and only 5 minutes in I hit a spill, an Indian and two Rosies...

Well, we were supposed to arrive in Ma. two weeks from today, but due to an unscheduled surgery on my eye we are going to have to bump it back a while. I want to thank all that were going to give up their time to meet up with us. Maybe we can try for some time late April or May. I hope to be...

I went out for a few hours by myself Saturday. I did a couple small yards and pulled 3 mercs and a few wheats. Sunday, I met up with Noah. We hunted most of the day. I dug another trifecta, a Rosie, Merc and Barber all from one yard. At the next few houses I dug Washington quarter, a couple of...

Noah and I drove a few hours south Saturday to get away from the 8 inches of snow still on the ground by us. It took 3 hours but we found a town that was old and snow free. We hunted most of the day and unfortunately it was slow going most of the day. Here are Saturdays finds: I found this car...

Today, Noah and I went out scouting a few field sites for future hunts. On the way home we stopped in a town that I hunted pretty heavily about three years ago. The ground has been frozen solid all week, but we decided to check it out this afternoon:crossfingers: and it was diggable.:shocked03...

I'm really not sure what it is, but it is silver Here are a couple of pics of the back. .

Well, it's that time of year again. Alec says he wants to head out east again this year and who am I to say no! This year he wants to stay in Mass but I have no idea where to stay. Any suggestions on a good location but still close enough to hopefully get together with a few of you guys...

Noah and I met up with Digger_O'Dell this morning for a little Illinois door knocking. I'll let them tell thier stories, but I will say we all got silver,Indians and more! The day started great right out of the gate, we got a yes at our very first house and my first signal was a V nickel...

Well, Noah and I decided to gamble Sunday and try a little detecting. To our surprise, the ground wasn't too bad at all! I didn't find a lot but, I did manage 4 coins and a few tid bits. It felt good to get out for a few hours. 1882 & 1887 Indians 1948-D & 1964 Rosies

I was going through this years wheat cents looking for any Key Dates that I may have dug and found a 1909 VDB. I figured if it's too frozen to detect, this would be the next best thing to do.LOL

Awesome scoop Tim. Your family did GOOD!! I still have your gift here.

The wife got Alec & I new batteries for our e-tracs. :happydance01: and chargers, of course :detecting:

I haven't tested it yet. It rang up 12-09 on the e-trac. the back is coated with crud, but when I scratched the back it looks like gold. I'll let you know when I test it.

Yesterday morning I met up with Dave & Noah for a little door knocking. We hit about four houses including the house that I scored at Big Time last week. Dave ( Daddy Digger ) was on fire all day. If you haven't seen his post already, check it out. It's EPIC! :envious: I managed 5 silvers, 1...

I went back to the house that I hunted last weekend. I dug a few nice coins, I'll post those after I clean them. This is what I think was my find of the day. A Woman's Relief Corps badge. The WRC was an official woman's auxiliary to the Grand Army of the Republic started in 1883. It appears to...

I met up with Noah today to hunt a town that I've never hunted before. We didn't start swinging until noon. We got a yes at the first house we tried. In the first 20 minutes, I dug a 1903 Barber dime and an Indian spill, an 1894 & 1883. I also dug an old button with a flower design. After...

I met up with Noah Saturday for a little door knocking. We did several houses and the finds were slow but steady. My first hole of the first house was a 1934 merc. The next three houses produced a 64 Rosie, an 1892 Indian and an extremely worn 1873 Indian. We were doing the last house of the day...

I got out Saturday for a few hours. Finds were slow in coming, but I did manage 2 more Indians and a " Marshall Wyatt Earp badge. Sunday, I met up with Dave, Noah and Tom ( Hiluxyota) for a little door knocking. Once again, the finds were slow in coming, but I did manage to pull a nice 1916-D...

I met up with Dave again for another courthouse hunt and then some door knocking. The courthous has obviously been pounded to death, but we did manage to dig one good coin each. Mine was a 1905 Indian . After that we hit 2 or 3 houses with very little luck, All I dug was an advertising thimble...

Ok, I just wrote a long post explaining what I got and where. My computer froze and I lost it all. So: Saturday with Tim (noah) Then Sunday with Daddy Digger & Il Digger:
