GO TO LAST PAGE OF AUGUST'S CONTEST. WHY? I like messing with you all. :shocked04:verreaction: Seriously i posted some Pre-Contest Info.

Hi everyone ! I want everyone to read my last post in the August contest section that just ended. I have some good ideas for future contests. I feel what Dan did was ADMIRABLE. So, I'm offering to run the next contest or at least DONATE MY ITEMS FOR THE NEXT ONE. I also have other ideas posted...

Here it is

I think I posted already but I have a preservation question . Dan (del) recommended using hairspray but as rusty as it is, that might not cut it. Has anyone tried using Varnish ? I also would like to know if anyone has seen this version ? I looked around and can't find one with the RF on the...

Hey everone. I found this Badge several years ago and have been wondering if it's the real deal. It's real fragile and if it's real, I'd like to preserve it. I realize it probably has very little value except historical but I still would like to save it from further damage. I read a post...

Hey everyone. I have a question about Detecting Cornfields. Is anyone from Connecticut ? I was wondering when they start picking corn in this area . I have a guy who gave me permission to detect his property that he just bought this Spring. He planted corn in this field I've been detecting for...

Hi everyone ! Well, I'm not new here but I never posted a pic before. This is like 7 years ago but it's the one I like the best. As far as my Bio ? Well, I live in CT,45 yrs. old, Married and have a 17 yr. old son. As far as the rest, just ask around . I don't know what to say about myself...

Hey everyone ! I posted this Website on another one I found to be very useful in ID'ing Coin Varieties , Error Coins etc. I see alot of people asking questions here and there about their coin finds. What Variety is it ? What kind of or is it an Error coin ? If you get stumped on something like...

Well, I'm up here in Maine from CT vacationing and hope to detect for the 1st time in the morning with a DFX I borrowed from my friend Dan ( del ). Wish me luck and any first time advice would be fully appreciated. The tide is up now (night) and will be low again around 4 a.m. Hoping there's...

I'm up here in Maine and I was on a Maine Forum just like this and I see a Member from this site on that site . How is that ? Does this forum link out to other states ? I wondered how there were people from all other states. I use this site and live in CT. Oh well, the wonders of the internet.

I'm going to try through Photobucket and see what happens. Yea it worked. It's difficult to see the dots and Cinquefoils in the pics vs. looking at the coin in hand but like I said I can drop it off at your house if you want. I've studied it maybe 20 times and it looks just like Miller 32.1 -...

I know this is supposed to be for dug coins, but I wasn't sure where to put it . I'm thinking it's a stuck piece of metal on the coin after looking at it through my loop. I know what a die crack looks like and I know this isn't that. I just need a 2nd opinion.

I love this site. Very helpful whether you a Novice or Expert. http://coinauctionshelp.com/index.html

Has anyone seen a button with a Eagle on the back ?

:) Hi everyone. This is my 1st post since last year. I had the opportunity to go detecting with del last Saturday at what I call The Button Site . We have found coins, but buttons probably in the hundreds . I got 3 buttons and a worn 1865 2 Cent piece. It was a tough 4 hrs. considering I...

Hi everyone ! I know this forum section is called What is it ? , but I found a good Error website to help others when they find a coin that looks a little strange .It's called Wexler's Die Varieties at www.doubleddies.com I found this 1968d Kennedy half and got excited thinking it was a...

:) Hi everyone. The post of the Shipwreck is actually about 1/4 walk to the beach that I am going to be staying near, and as you see from the Picture it is very close to our Motel shown in the picture ( Motel is where the manicure grass is ). My Question being a woods hunter using a White's...

There is a new show on SPIKE TV called American Digger. I think this show gives Metal Detecting a bad name. They Rudely knock on doors unprofessionally and try to gain permission to search land. The Thing is they literally blow up the ground, bulldoze it and it just makes MD'ing look Abrasive...

I hope to get some pics of my own if the vessel is still there. It's not often you see something like this. I can't wait to go up there in July. http://www.seacoastonline.com/articles/20070425-NEWS-704250329?cid=sitesearch This link is the full article. I hope it works.

Hey everyone ! I have a question about detecting on beaches. There's a beach that I've been to since I was little. All the time that I've been there I never saw anyone Detecting, so it should be a good site. The problem is the tide in most areas comes in at night all the way to the back wall, so...
