    Yet another silver coin, and no its not a dime lol

    This is getting a little weird and funny now. I can find these silver quarters all over the place, and cant find a silver dime . Not that i'm complaining at all, i'm having a blast on this silver run . On this 2 hour hunt, i dug over 20 semi deep to deep penny signals hoping my 250 would be...

    A Stander, a Walker, and Wheats

    I had an awesome morning today! I stopped at a house to inquire about the old empty one next door, the woman couldnt give me any info on it but offered her yard for me to hunt. I asked if i could have a friend join me and she said the invite was just for today, and me alone. So as i was hunting...

    easy silver today, with a few relics

    Once again Onaug and i hit the dirt looking for goodies. The first stop produced 4 wheats and a cool small fork for me. I dont think the fork is silver, as there are no markings or stamps at all on it. But it sure came out clean and relatively shiney. Picked up a cool small padlock and a little...

    I took the wife to the grocery store, and she told me to take my detector since she would probably be a while. (you know how the ladies can shop till they drop.) So right around the corner from the store is an empty lot bordering city property, and since there was a city worker cutting the dead...

    Found my oldest coin yet! 1820 LC!

    I am still in shock from what i found earlier this afternoon. While hunting eith a buddy along those sidewalk strips right around where i found that barber half last week, i got a deep quarter signal about 6 inches down on the ace 250. Cut the plug and its still in the hole, so i loosened up...

    All these 50 cent signals finally pay off!

    Well its been a while since i had anything to post about, but i had to share my excitement! I hit an old property friday morning and dug only deep signals, and came up with just a few clad and some tokens. After digging 6 half dollar signals and finding 5 mardi gras type tokens and one...

    Something i forgot to mention with my last post

    The Franklin half i posted the other day was scratched front and back..but not by me. (its a miracle lol ) The letter K can be seen scratched into the front...and the word KAY is scratched on the bell on the reverse. Just wanted you guys to see this, as i think it adds character and a story...

    Heartstopping big silver

    I got up early at dawn to hit a few spots while it was under 90 degrees with this 95 % humidity we have here . My first stop was the usual clad and a few mardi gras tokens , as well as a couple of local festival tokens (Contraband days). Lots of copper pennies that ring up as dimes on the 250 ...

    Anyone in or near the Slidell La area?

    I've been in Slidell for several months now working construction jobs and have found a few goodies here, but the older sites are hard to find and get permission for. Anyone near me that would like to swap hunting locations while teaming up would be appreciated :)
