Put my first display together this winter. It's strange how I can remember the spot and the experiences I had that day, but I get lost 50 feet from the trail lol lol. If there's any individual item you want to see better, let me know.

Guess I can't complain this being my only one. Nice date and the miller # says rare . I studied it for a long time and i'm sure I have the right one.

Bought this awhile ago from a well known company. The problem is they call me at least once a day. Found others having this problem. They dial a bunch of numbers and the 1st to pick-up gets to talk with a Telemarketer. The rest of the calls are cancelled out and theres just dead air. No one can...

What grade would you give this? Back is slightly better.

Bought off a guy about5 years ago for $11. Good deal or what? I've seen some with the back ,but nothing like the front. Cool HuH? The silver round is a proof coin thats why there is scratch reflections. Its the holder not the coin, trust me. :)

Have some leads and maybe a donation will help in getting permission. The club I use to belong to YTC will pay to hunt and whats even better is they have insurance coverage. Ill run it by the present President of the club. What do you CT an MA residents think? :-\

Taking a poll. Do you think this coin was dug or stashed away in someones collection at one point?? Let's see how experienced you all are. Just in case you get a job on Pawn Stars lol lol lol lol lol. You can be Chumlee the 2nd lol lol lol.

Found this at an old celar hole, but just recently thought about the rim looking strange. Error? What Kind would this fall under? :confused:

found this at an old park my first year detecting, maybe 2002? looks old but was found around the picnic area a few inches down. No back to it, I can see the brass from that side. I call it Little Piggy's going to the market lol lol

Found this beauty where del and I found many coins and buttons( in fact del found a whole button spill) . I was excited when I realized it was full intact and functional. Quick advise. If you see a pic and want too enlarge it, right click,select copy and paste to your desktop. Then you can...

This was a puzzle hunt. It had been driven over by a tractor doing tree cutting. Got alot of iron targets and just started diggging. Found the main piece first then just kept digging anywhere from a few links to a strand. It's not complete,maybe I'll go back and locate the rest. At the top of...

Found this long time ago. With all the dirt on it, I almost thought it was an acorn beacause I had been digging up alot that day. Notice how its not flat.

Found this awhile ago at a 1800's site. Belt Plate customized for cutting?

wish me luck :-\ The penny is broadstruck, no? The 6 is also affected, it looks doubled and there's a definite dip where the line is. The next is a dime with a clear reed error. The center between the top and bottom is recessed. You can see the copper layer. Strange huh? Both are...

Just got a kodak easyshare 12 megapixals, 3x optical, 5x zoom. What's the best way to use lighting and get clarity on dark copper coins, coins in air-tite holders and what size do the pictures have to be to post on the site. Any help will be appreciated. It's a c182 kodak by the way.

Love going on hunts with a bunch of other detectorists. I might have 2 good spots picked out. Just have to make contacts. Sometimes its easier when you tell the owner that the club has Insurance and will make a donation. Thats if I cant get permission for just myself or a couple others to join...

The best way, especially silver is to just rinse them off. With Large cents I use dish detergent , soak for as long as you want, let it dry and lightly use a toothpick to get some of the dirt and dried patina off. I have 5 2-cent pieces and they are very green, but that's what holds the...

I've found about 8 or 9 in the past 4 years and one was a 1864 small motto . Its seems to be very rare, only found a couple on Ebay. I figure mines worth about $200 or more. Does everyone know that there are about 11 ways to tell it's a small motto? The two biggest ways is first: the D in GOD...
