Dan, this is payback for the capped bust you dug 5 feet from me at the cellar hole you guys invited me to hunt in August :poke::poke::poke::hystericallaugh::rofl::lolsign::rofl::hystericallaugh::poke::poke::poke: Just kidding :lol: Okay guys I went back to my amazing 1824 property today for an...

Hey guys ... me and my dad decided to spend Saturday detecting the other (right) side of the 1824 house yard. I was not expecting a lot since this was the "unoriginal side of the house" but I decided to hit it anyway. Well my first signal was an umbrella slide Victorian era so I knew I was onto...

Well yesterday was a day that I had dreamt of for a while. I was really starting to contemplate whether I was going to pull an 1800s silver by the end of the year... well... Screw 1800s silver!!! My dad picked me up right from school, it was a beautiful day, we both wanted to hit the 1824...

Hey guys. Yesterday I went to a permission which was an 1824 house a couple towns over from where I usually dig. I was pretty excited to hit the house because I know it was old and the ground was never disturbed... of course... since I lived in Northern Virginia someone else had already hit it...

So on Monday I got myself a permission to a nice 1918 house. (one that the neighbor told me to get off their property) Just by the look of the yard, I knew it was going to be good. The finds weren't extremely old, but they were certainly plentiful! The first target was a solid 82 which I...

Yesterday I hunted at my 1870 house... again... I asked permission at a 1918 house nearby but didn't have any luck... no one answered and the rude neighbor told me to get the hell off the property........ smh....... so back to the 1870 cause I didn't feel like dealing with anymore rude people :/...

On Saturday I went by myself to a 1925 house and dug a lot of nice goodies. First I dug a brooch near the sidewalk with the stone still in it (fell out in pouch :( ) and then I moved on to the front yard where I dug three wheats next to a tree. After I hunted the small front yard, I moved on to...

Here's some finds that I've found lately that I didn't show I got a barber dime on Sunday... and I'm so happy about it it wasn't shallow either, very faint signal! 15 minute hunt in the rain at a hunted out site, not too bad civil war 45 minute hunt in a grown up field! GL...

Hey guys I went back to the place where I dug the morgan for an evening hunt until it started raining. This place is hunted out very well.... my first find was a navy button I missed before and my second was a reallllly low signal and out pops a ball button.... it's a special one though as it's...

Can someone give me some tips on how to distinguish the two from each other? What do you think the difference between the two are? Is there a difference? All comments are appreciated. Thanks, Isaac

Okay guys remember that 1870 house I found those 20 indians at the 2 golds over a dozen silvers? Well I attempted permission at next door for the umpteenth time and someone finally answered this time... got permission. Hit the side yard next to the side yard of the 1870 house where I dug most of...

Hey guys, I recently starting making videos for metal detecting for people to enjoy (my awful acting). Here's a throw back to August to when I dug 7 silvers in one hole and a large cent at a cellar hole in CT. My dad came along with me (he was the camera man this time) and I got kinda...

Went to a 1900 house and hit the whole yard in three hours... might go back and see what I missed. Got 16 wheats including a nice green 1918, indian cent #30 FTY, silvers #61 and #62 FTY, and lots of relics. One of the relics was a Civil War general staff cuff button. I have some history behind...

Or is it my imagination? This one has been intriguing me for a while. I found this back in June. It rang up a 70 on the ATP. It's 27 MM and is pretty thin. Worn smooth. Is there any way to get some more details in case this is a large copper? I've already dry brushed it a bit...

Decided to dry brush and toothpick my flying eagle cent that I found in June today. I think it cleaned up really nicely! Before: You couldn't see anything on the back. After: -- I'm really happy with the results. How do you guys think I did? :) GL and HH! Isaac

…this .58 caliber Minnié ball bullet was fired by a civil war soldier (most likely Union) on the path of Lee's retreat only a couple miles away from Saylar's Creek National Battlefield. This bullet was shot only 3 days before the surrender. My favorite part of this hobby is being able to tell...

- This is my first time cleaning pewter so don't judge me if it's a bit rough, thank you - I finally decided to take this pewter coin and use Dave's (HEAVYMETALNUT's) method of using hair spray to coat the coin... when i first rinsed the coin I saw a date of 1828... I just knew it had to be...

Thanks again Dave, Todd, and Dan for inviting me for to this great adventure and experience. We got to the spot at 7am and started hiking to the hole. The first site took about an hour to get to and it had been hit hard in the past. We all pulled a few buttons and Dave pulled out this 1630s...

I went back to the cellar hole last night and went in a few different areas I didn't hit before. My first target was a brass screw and the second one was a gold plated cuff link type deal. My third target next to a stone wall hanging over a river rang in a solid 83 and I already knew what it...

Today I went to my cousins house… and of course the area was older. We passed by so many colonial houses, so what do you think I wanted to do? :lol: My cousin told me about a hiking trail with a "pound" nearby... the "pound" turned out to be a beautiful rock foundation holding place for cattle...
