    Buttons!

    Don got the best one but at least I got a few. The silver plated button says treble plated on the back. Got an 1873 Indian from a yard earlier.

    Sterling watch fob.

    Found this couple years ago. I was just curious if anyone had an idea what type/style watch would have been attached to it. Thanks.

    One amazing yard

    We’ve always said it only takes one good yard. Of course Don & company took the best coins. At least I got seated. 1st yard all I got was this sterling whatchamacallit with a date I can only assume is 1899. Last yard as it was raining I did get a Merc. Has anyone ever seen this token?

    Vacuuming Indians.

    No, I didn’t find a lot of Indians, but the Don and Alex duo sure did! All day long they only left me one! But it was still a great day out. And we got onto some excellent properties. Three Silver’s is not bad and at least one of them was a beautiful barber dime 1897. Also managed to a dog...

    Thanks for leaving me one!

    I got out with Don and later our buddy Mark. The very 1st yard Don gets his two cent wish answered. But at least I got a barber dime (1902 O). Then we traded sides of the yard and I got my first fatty Indian (1860)! Almost all of our finds came from that yard. Did get a another Indian later...

    High expectations

    First hole in a new town Got a permission later from a gentleman who said he use to metal detect. Did not expect to find anything in his yard but I managed a 2 quarter spill and an 1886 Indian! next we got permission for a yard, this guy claimed never been hunted. He’s been there 40 years...

    A friends big old farmhouseI found nothing else.

    I had hunted this yard before but I figured it was better than not getting out at all. I had found a railroad luck there before. This time I found another much larger. I found nothing else.

    couple weekends ago

    I got invited to a field hunt that had been pounded already but some nice silver Spanish had come out of it before. I wasn’t expecting to find anything but I gave it a whirl. Change the settings on my machine to an open screen and sensitivity to maximum. Very quiet except for the constant...

    Mid 1800s house 7 silver spill!!

    Why couldn’t they be seated?? It was fun pulling them out of the hole though. Don couldn’t believe it! 7 rosies. Continuing through the day, it was slow. But I did manage one more Rosie at another red brick house. Later popped a Buffalo and a bar token. Got into another 1880s yard and got a...

    Happy to be on the board

    Drove with Don until we got to where the snow was minimal. Got my first cigar token ever. And I got my first Indian for the year!

    last of the year

    Yes they’re sideways. It’s tough being left handed and I don’t feel like correcting it. Thanks for getting out with me again Don. Wasn’t expected a “modern” farthing (1862). I’m sure that’s a boring find for Dave in Europe! Anyway our very late Indian summer is over. Good luck all in the...

    Multiple coin spills

    Had epic day with Don. Back to house from last weekend and got an iffy wheat/Indian signal. Getting down to it pulling a wheat I rechecked the hole and got another and another and another........ One hole got 20 wheat, 3 Indian, 3 buffalo, 2 V nickel, 3 mercury dimes! Another hole got 2 more...

    Nothing but a lousy dog tag!

    A little road trip with Don yielded only one silver but I did manage an 1883 dog tag!! Oops, sideways again! Got to give something for Daddy Digger to complain about LOL! Anyways maybe the moderator can fix it for me. Always hoped I could find one of these from the 1800s but never expected...

    Hard to find treasures in Illinois

    Haven’t posted in a while. Places have dried up and I haven’t had much luck. This weekend Don and I tried a couple towns we had minimal success in before followed by another we haven’t been to. Well I picked up a couple here and another there! And I only scared one old lady! Actually for...

    Average hunt in the midwest.... not really!

    Don and I had the pleasure of meeting up with Tony two-cent to hit a new town. Don and I got there a little early, even too early to knock on doors however we spotted a man outside his 1930s house surrounded by 1800s houses and decided to ask permission. first hole, 1936 Mercury dime. Pulled...
