I got to the park early, it rained all day yesterday and it was sopping wet and barely 50 degrees but the silver thimble was worth some cold wet feet. It's the second Sheffield thimble that I've found, the first one I found was more of a plain Jane compared to this one. This park is mostly...

Yesterday I went to the junior high that I went to in hopes of finding some goodies, I got a good clad haul and by the time I found the silver GW I was getting wore out and ready to take off. Getting older has it's downfalls in the stamina department. Today I decided to take a trip back to...

I went to the same park where I found the neat cap gun recently and found a silver rosie, a silver/gold & diamond ring and 4 cents today. The ring gave me too high of a reading for gold and not high enough for silver, almost like a zinc and I'm really glad I dug it cause it was one of them...

This morning my brother called me and asked if I wanted to go to a spot where he found a barber quarter and SLQ yesterday and I said you bet I want to go, we both found a barber quarter this morning, his was a Philadelphia and mine was a Denver, we both found two Indians too, I did beat him on...

The case was made in September 1990 and the insert was made in August of 90 :grin:

From video clips I put together from recent finds

I went back to the torn down house spot that I've been hunting recently and managed to find some keepers, some of you know I like digging up the Zippo's and just about every hunting I go on I'm thinking maybe there's a zippo here, well I wasn't even thinking about that on this hunt and what...

WW2 US Army Coast artillery collar insignia I looked it up and it's a WW2 US Army Coast artillery collar insignia. It is upside down in the first photo.

I met with a friend at a torn down house spot, I didn't find any silver or gold but I did get some nice keepers though.

It may not look that great but it's still sterling :grin:

On May 12th I managed to find me an Indian, I made these finds at a torn down house spot. I made these finds on the 14th in the same woods where I found my first seated quarter I made these finds on the preserve where I found my colonial copper. Here's what I found today from a...

Here's the last thing that I did electrolysis on. I used a 10amp battery charger on this with baking soda and water for electrolyte.

Last year my brother was razzing me about all the different methods that I had for cleaning my finds, soon after I held a glob of rust in front of him, he said whats that crap, I said it's a knife and I am going to show you what apple cider vinegar can do. :grin:

It looks like 925

I found my first seated quarter, it's a smoothy but I'll take it, especially since I've never found one before today. I was hunting a woods spot where I found my first silver of the year last year. I found the ring before I did the quarter, most of the other coins were from a couple spills, I...

I think you're right about the ladies pocket book or compact, looks like the loops probably had a chain attached at one time, I searched the area for other parts to it but couldn't find any. The other side had two spots for probably rouge and powder I would guess but theres no writing on it...

The other day I was talking to my brother on the phone and said lets go to the woods in B.C., he said nah there ain't anything left in them woods anymore but have I got news for him :grin: I've also got a short youtube vid that I did of today's hunt.

Well enough is enough I decided to call it quits for the electrolysis on the plaque, it still had black rust left but I've been working on this thing long enough and decided to seal it up with a baked on coat of vegetable oil. For something that's been in the ground a long time I'm happy with...

I found this on the 29th of April and it was probably 15 inches down, I decided that I was going to dig some of the iron objects in the area, I also found an ox shoe that day too. I've still got some more electrolysis to do on this one and then I'm going to be getting me some beeswax unless...
