    What do you do with your finds?

    Here's where I been putting my silvers for the past several years and also many of them are in books. I've got a half gallon fruit jar jug full of wheats along with a quart and pint Milk bottles full. I've got most of my silver jewelry etc. in a Mason's 1858 jar that I found detecting. The jar...

    1889 V Nickel & Lowest Mintage Mercury Dime from the 1940's

    Great score on the merc and V :thumbsup01: My rarest V nickel is the 1885, I've got it stashed in a small box with a few small gold pieces in with it, I just had to figure out what I did with it so when I found it I decided to take a pic of it.

    Whites Officially Announced The Bullseye TRX Pinpointer

    Mine arrived today, I must say it's really sensitive, I really like how you can rachet in on a target too. With my old Bullseye II you had to practically be touching a target but that's not the case with this one, it's actually going to be worth bringing along. I really like the idea that I can...

    First Beach Find

    Great score on the Triton ring, I've been putting off posting here til I got a chance to look through my jewelry cause I just knew that I had one or two of that same brand. I found this one in about waist deep water in a swimming area of a county park.
