    Perfume is sweet...but this is sweeter!

    I got out for a bit before work at a park near my home. Went straight into the woods where I like to be. I snagged a few pennies, a bullet, and usual trash. Then I came upon a nice solid signal. I'm thinking silver quarter, but out comes a bottle of perfume :shocked04: (cologne to be more...

    Got a silver just under the wire! Hunt with Captain Silver

    Got out this morning with the Captain (From Friendly Forum)! Went to a new place. Very trashy. I've been playing with a Teknetics T2 from New England Detectors where I help out Andrew. Been trying to get used to all the noise it makes. Not easy. I plopped around for a while cleaning up clad...

    GOLD, SILVER, and a RELIC in 1 hunt!!!

    OK, I had to get the oil changed in my car today. There was NO way I was going to sit in the waiting room for two hours! lol So, I grabbed my F2 and headed to some woods nearby. My very first find was a gold 1971 Yale class ring <:! I couldn't believe it. What a way to start my hunt and the...

    Buttons and Bottles (Cellar Hole Hunt)

    Did a little cellar hole hunting with Charlives and Merc from the Friendly Forum on Wednesday Dec. 28, 2011. There was very little modern trash here. The others managed a few buttons and some other colonial era items. I didn't find any good items except a square nail. But I was able to salvage a...

    Forgotten Park hunt with the Captain!

    Did a little hunting with Captain Silver (From Friendly Forum) on Monday Dec. 19, 2011 in Bridgeport, Conn. I found a couple wheats, some clad, four bullets, and what I think is a silver plated spoon. The Captain got a few wheats, some clad, and a 1942 Mercury dime. Good times and a great hunt...

    Greenest Wheatie I've ever seen!

    It was so nice today, so I went back to the woods where I found the old Mercury dime in. I was hoping to score some more silver, but it was not to be. :crying02: However, I did manage a couple of Wheaties and some other relics. The one wheat cent from 1939 was so green I almost wasn't sure if...

    A Nice Gold Ring Found Me Today!

    So, I had a bit of time to detect before I headed to work and I hunted some woods. I didn't find anything great, just some clad and some trash. My batteries were almost toast (don't you love that) when I hit a really nice signal on my F2. About two inches down I pop out this lump. At first I'm...

    Bushwacking pays off!

    It hit some park woods near my home which I've gone to a few times before. I picked up a 3 Merry Widows tin there and I knew it was an old area. Today, I just plowed through some of the thick brush and managed a few keepers plus a pouch full of trash! I got three wheaties: a 1950-D, 1950, and a...

    Bank robbers in the woods??

    Got some time yesterday to hunt with fellow forum member DCW (Dan) from Friendly Forum. We met up at Veterans Memorial Park in Bridgeport. Man, what a trash pit. There was even a safe lid that may have been left by robbers!! :shocked04: I did manage a small penny spill by a large tree. I got...

    My first pocket watch...sort of.

    I had about an hour to do some hunting today. Instead of swinging in the open field the whole time, I decided to try the edges into the brambles and weeds. I got a couple of clad quarters first. Then I got a pocket watch. I didn't expect that to pop out that's for sure. It looked like a...

    Two silver rings today

    I went out for a quick afternoon hunt. It was SO nice. Couldn't waste it inside. I headed to Branford and hit a small section of green near the library. Turned up some quarters. I got a 1966 and a 1965 (SO close). Silver coins were not in the cards today. BUT as I was headed out I got these two...

    Slim Pickins today

    Hi all! Did a little hunting today with Dirt Lizard (From the Friendly Forum) and hit a couple of places this morning. First was a a small park by a lake in Wallingford which we soon realized was probably a newer park. We only picked up some clad coins. Then we went to a park in Bethany which...

    Great hunt before work!!!

    I spent a half an hour before work and hunted at an old ball field near the LI Sound. I immediately came up with a great signal but it was mixed and all over the place. I dug and found a big old rusty piece of metal. I rechecked the hole and the high tone was still there. Dug a little more and...

    I found the key to the city!

    Hey fellow hunters, I had about an hour on this beautiful day to hunt and I went to some woods near my home with a ton of trails running through it. I've always wanted to stop there and so I did. I got two little coins spills in two separate locations on the trails and as I was leaving I found...

    I'm on a roll folks!

    Wow! I had a few minutes to hunt a small park in Milford today. There's a massive boulder there where the patriots used it as a lookout for the British back in the Revolutionary War. I really didn't think I'd find anything old because I know that the park was renovated. So, I headed straight to...
