Went to a park that gave up 5 mercs and a buff in 2011. It gave me a good start to 2012 with a 1942 merc and a small sterling ring. :happydance01: All totaled today $2.01 in coin also got a 1946 wheat a gold (colored) Avon ring with a small diamond (not). Had to hunt using the onboard speaker as...

Had to go out today! The snow (almost) all melted away. And i needed a fix. :shocked04:stretcher: No silver today but i don't care. Got $3.09 including 6 wheaties. Also got my second foriegn coin, a ten something. I'm not sure what that other detectorist was getting last week when i was there...

Does anyone here have one of these? Or does anyone here know of someone that does? I'm assuming it's a new version of the Bigfoot coil as made by some new company. And i am interested as to how well (or not) it works. (Google &quot:beerbuddy:ig Dawg coil) for link This is for DFX and other...

This is what i woke up to this morning. I guess it's time to pack away most of my detecting gear.

Might be the last good day for hunting this year. Went back to the park i've been finding wheats and mercs at. There was another detectorist there today but he/she was on the other side of the park and kept going the opposite direction i was. I picked up $2.61 including a 1943-S merc and a...

I went on E-bay and sold some of the coins i found this year. I sold my walker half and four silver quarters i found. And 20 dimes. The total i got for them was $84.00. I figure i can get 2 one ounce pure .999 silver bullion for that. I did save the best stuff i found so i can look at it and...

Well, i can't get as many silvers as he does so i had to go older than his. I hit that small park in town today. The one that has gotten me the 1894-s barber quarter. The 1920 SLQ and the most recent the 1919 Canadian dime. So then Joe finds a 1917 Canadian dime. Just to show me up! rofl Today...

Back out to the park i've been hunting lately. Got $2.14 including a 1945 merc and two wheat pennies also from the forties. And dug up what looks like it was some kind of bracelet. It's all things having to do with France. Here's pic.......

Back to the park i got the wheats at yesterday. People said where there's wheats ..... you know! So the first signal i dug today was a 1927 merc. Then a few pennies and a couple dimes. Including 1918, 1950, 1954 and 1957 wheats. Then the last dig was a 13-12 and i thought that's a backwards...

Beautiful weather said go out hunting (coins not deer). So back to the park where i found two mercs a couple days ago. No silver for me today though. Got an olympic gold medal ( lol ) a clump of lead some spikes from track shoes ( i assume) a screw and a bunch of clad. Also seven wheat pennies...

Today i went to another park in the same town where i've been hunting lately. This park is bigger and not as old but my wife said her mother had talked about going there when she was a kid. So it's got to have some good stuff i figure. I started on the far side of the park and was finding alot...

Back to the park that has been sooooo good to me. It took 5 hours of hunting today and that netted me .41 in clad. And finally another seated dime. 1875-S in pretty slick shape. Got some pictures of the park too. The big tree at the front of the parking area has been there for quite awhile...

Today i hit oak park again! The area that i was gridding yesterday. No silver for me today in fact all i got was five cents. Three of the five were memorial pennies. The other two cents was what i thought was a shield nickel at first. But then i thought the numbers were wrong and the tone was...

First off let me say i'm very sorry Mr. Tony two cent. But today i went back to oak park and just as the snow started to fall heavily i got another high pitched tone that showed deep. My second seated dime! Another 1877 but this time Philadelphia mint. Not in as good condition as the Carson City...

went back to Oak park again today to see what i could find. It gave me the shield nickel the first visit. The seated dime on the second visit. And today it gave up a 1901 V nickel. Also pulled out a crusty wheat penny that after a little electrolysis and toothbrush scrubbing turned out to be a...

I was hoping to get to 30 silver coins for the year and hit two parks yesterday with no luck as far as silver only a coupls wheats. So today i went out early to Oak park in Grand Ledge Michigan where i found the toasted shield nickle last week. I found six memorial pennies and one clad quarter...

Back to the small park in town today. This park hasn't had large quantities of silver but so far it's quality. The first silver from here was the 1894-S barber quarter next was the 1920 SLQ. Today i was saved from the S.D.H.o.S. by a Canadian <;). A 1919 Canadian dime that was hiding 8 under...

My wife owns a flower shop and forced me to do a delivery for her today. O.K. she paid me ten bucks to make a delivery to a funeral home in a town about a half hour away. There is a large park in the town i planned to hit after delivering the flowers. But on the way to the funeral home i saw a...

:happydance01: S.D.H.o.S. averted by a sweet lady mercury. It was back to the park where i found the silver Washington quarter to see if there were more that got missed. I was digging wheat pennies and figured there would be some silver too! One lone Mercury dime saved me from shame. Also got...
