May Flies in Mississippi! Argggggggggggggggggg! Stay out of the Light!

Well I just found out something. I was going to reset my F75 SE back to factory default. It says to turn off machine. Push red menu button, push toggle switch forward and hold while turning on machine. Once the machine is on, release the menu button and toggle switch, an F should appear on you...

Well I'm still diggin. Just not finding much. Got permission to hunt this yard. [attachimg=1] Was built in 1902. Second floor was gutted by fire this last winter. Lady and her husband still live on the first floor. Stopped and got permission. Hunted it today. Very large house, very small lot...

Well here's the story from the last two afternoons. There is a black church in one of the rough area's I patrol. Carl, the old man that goes with me ( I call him old because he's older than me) when I hunt, told me he went to church there when he was three years old. He's 73 now. It was a white...

Sorry, I saw this while reading the reviews on the AT PRO. Thought it was really funny, but, true! Couldn't help posting it. Also metal detecting is all about LOCATION. Dont go looking for a 4 leaf clover in a bed of itch weed and complain about the red rash on your face. Hahaha!

Hello, well I went back to the private lot to finish it up today. Weird. This is a large vacant lot. It once had two houses that shared a common drive way. Yesterday I worked the right side of the drive finding the Merc, tokens, and 8 wheat cents. Today I worked the left side of the drive. No...

Hey folks. Found this token yesterday. Mississippi City Lines. Can't find anything online about it. Have asked some of the old timers around here with no results. Not sure if it a trolley line or bus line. I'm leaning toward a trolley line. Altho I can't find one that was in this area with that...

For those of you out there that might use the F75. I use the F75 LTD SE. It has a continous backlight which is great at dusk. But, I do some night hunting and once it gets dark I find it too bright. It kinda blinds you. Hard to see whats under your feet. I called Fisher to see about having the...

Hello, had about a 4 hour hunt this afternoon on some private property. Got about $3.00 in clad. ( not pictured). [attachimg=1] A 1944 Merc. [attachimg=2][attachimg=3][attachimg=4] 8 Wheats, [attachimg=5][attachimg=6] Two tokens, a Mississippi sales tax token, and a Mississippi City Lines bus...

Well the Silver Gods arent smiling on me yet, but they did grin a little. Short lunch break hunt last night. Went to the site of the old Ag school. Dug 5 targets. First was the 43-D Merc. This makes 14 Silvers out of the site. Second was junk. Then the two mem's. And last was the 42 wheat...

I am so glad that you guys are finding the Silver! Last three hunts, ZERO! The Silver Gods are truly frowning on me! Got out this morning for four hours. Got permission to hunt a church that was established in 1906, the house next door that was a rooming house in the early 1900's. And the vacant...

Hi I posted this on the coin forum with some other finds. Sorry, don't mean to Double dip. I had a question some of you might could help me with. In the process of cleaning it I attempted to turn the dial. And of course the rusted rivet broke. Does anyone know how or where I might could send it...

Finally got a break today to go hunting. Went to two houses, side by side that I had got permission to hunt. Found $4.05 in clad. [attachimg=1] No silver which surprised me with the eight wheats I found. All in the fifty's I think. [attachimg=2][attachimg=3] In the back yard of the second house...

Thought I would share this. I just recieved these two items I had ordered. A lot of times the rings you find are bent up. They made quick work of the ring in the picture. I didn't need to use the hammer. Just ran the ring down and around the taper a vew times. The tools are very inexpensive.

Man, I started a Lawn Care buis. this summer that has really put a stumpper into my hunting. Figured I would try to pick up some extra change to supplement my PD income. Now its hard to find time to do anything else. Still on nights at the PD. Had to stay up all night last night so I could sleep...

Well I did my usual 15 min lunch break hunt this morning about 2:00 AM. No Silver. But I did find this Eleizabeth Post Makeup container. I was chomping at the bits to get home and get it opened. I didn;t really get my hopes up, I've never found anything inside one but hey..... fun to think...

Had to work last night. Got to work tonight and tomorrow night. Took my lunch break this morning about 2:00 AM. Had about 15 minutes left and hit the same sidewalk strip I did last week when I found the Rosie. Same routine as last time. Working fast, but steady. Skipping over the penny signals...

Spent the afternoon at the site of the old Ag school. Good finds are begining to be far and few between. $3.67 in clad. I finally just quit diggin stinkin Lincoln Signals. And a small silver ring. I guess its suppose to be like a silver nugget. Thought at first maybe a rose, but I don't think...
