Has any member of American Detectorist ever bought (or had one purchased for them) one of those tee shirts sold on E-bay? The ones that say Got metal detecting or I'd rather be searching with metal detector. If so i would assume that it has never been worn outside the house. :hysterical: I have...

Today was probably the last one for this year. Last time out i hit the corn field across the road. I figured i would try the field on the left side. The right side gave me three great coins. My only large cent, my only half dime and my only love token etched on a seated dime. So the part of the...

I got the O.K. to hunt the yard of an old house in town. It was purchased by a kid that was a boyscout when i was a scout leader. His family owns the funeral home in town. And he is now a funeral director. The house is only two houses down from his parents house. His father was the scoutmaster...

Today i went up north to help my parents load up their truck as they are leaving for Florida for the winter. After we got the things that they needed help with done i headed for home. But not directly home. There is a conservation club that i pass everytime i take this route to or from my...

Well, i could change the name of the park i found the three walkers in to that. But today i turned out to be just a walk in the park. :yes: I got a fossil watch that isn't working and has water in it. I found right next to my truck before i even headed out onto the grass. And $2.28 in clad. Two...

Today i went back to that small park that i found the two mercs at a week or so ago. I didn't think this park looked all that good for detecting and don't know how old the park is. But i figured if it had mercs it should have other 40's-50's and 60's coins in it somewhere. So i started at the...

I got out in the cold today and hit a high school football stadium nearby. I had hit most of the grounds outside the stadium before and today the gate was open so i hit the inside area. NOT the field!!!! My take for today was $15.22 and sterling ring #13 for the year. Also got a chunk of copper...

Today it's supposed to get up near 80 degrees. Tomorrow it's supposed to drop to the mid forties. :frozen: So today i went out to lake Lansing park to hit the beach and surrounding areas. My finds for the day $7.17 my 12th sterling ring for the year two dinkies (as Leslie would say). Also got a...

Yesterday i hit the park where i found my first and only barber dime awhile back. I didn't find much in the park, but at the top of the hill at one end of the park was a closed down elementary school. In the front lawn just a few inches from the sidewalk i pulled a 1944 merc. Today i hit a new...

Yesterday i dug up a buff at a small park i made my first trip to. Last year i dug up six nickels! (of oldness) Four were buff's one V and a war nickel. This year i dug up six nickels! (of oldness too) Four are Buff's one V and a war nickel. Both V nickels are 1901. Both war nickels are 1943...

My wife crashed her car on friday. A guy pulled out in front of her and she clipped him on the back corner. She is fine! Just a little sore here and there. So now i'm the chauffeur and can't get out to dig. Today i got lucky when i dropped her off at her flower shop on the way back to the truck...

Hit a couple schools today and got a handful of coins. But i also found something that the lawnmower man left behind. I couldn't find the rest but i hope this is more than half so i can turn it in for a new one. ;)

I decided i needed another Pro-pointer as a back-up. So i went on E-bay to look for one. I found that New England Detectors was having a deal, buy a Pro-pointer and get a Lesche tool for $10.00 bucks more. So now i'm getting a back-up Lesche too! Sweet deal N.E.D. :perfect10: <:

Today i headed to an old park in the heart of the big city. This place has a comunity pool that has been there since 1922. And it's a big park. So i figured there was plenty of oppertunity for silver. I hit a spot by an old baseball backstop and gathered up a couple quarters three dimes and...

Today i hit a local school and found $5.80 in coins and two rings. One is .925 and the other is a football! I also got 4 new cars. Three of them were buried next to the base of a post right next to each other. GL/HH Here's pics...........

I couldn't wait till football at the high schools is over so i hit the school where i found $36.00 in quarters (including 1 SBA dollar). I figured i would find several new drops and i did! But it looks like i missed a bunch the first time too. :happydance01: Today i got $16.79 in coin and some...

I recently took some of my gold rings to places that buy gold. It seems that they pay about $8 less per gram than the value of the gold. Today i took in the two 14 kt bands that i found in the lake. The first place was a coin dealer that offered 253.58 the next was a jewelry store that offered...

Hit a new park today and the second coin i hit was a wheatie, so i figured thar be silver here! Well i got an iffy nickel signal after awhile and as soon as i saw it in the hole i knew from the color it was a war nickel. (that's silver in my book) ;) Got two other wheats but no more silver. 43-D...

Went north to help my dad today. Seems he was trying to cut a cinder block in half and the saw blade caught his glove and cut open the back of his hand slicing a tendon. :omg: I only had to help with little stuff so afterwards i hit the lake with the beach hunter I.D. Not many coins as i'm just...
