On December 6th I sent in 4 Zippo's to be repaired and I got them back yesterday, they sent me extra flints, a pocket identification code card, catalog and all the lighters in great working order. The brass one on the left I bought back in 1994 and it was made in November of 93, the DMAC...

Lemon juice also works pretty good too.

I got a first at the preserve today and its mighty preserved (April 4th 2008) I'm going to try duplicating the post from the original back in April 2008, I still have the compass _________________________________________________________________________________________ I've always wondered if...

I went to a woods (it's actually considered a park but just trails alongside of my old junior high) and had a decent hunt. I think that the trumpet mouthpiece might be solid silver but can't say for sure, it sure did come out of the ground nice and shiny. The flashlight was an eyeball find and...

Very cool finds you got there Glen :thumbsup01: :congrats:

The button has an iron back to it, I tried finding this button on the net but couldn't, now that I know what it is maybe I can find more about it, thanks a lot for the info :thumbsup01:

Great haul you got there :thumbsup01: that knife turned out really nice ! :congrats: I'm editing this post cause when I originally posted I couldn't remember exactly when but I dug two of them Susan B's from the same hole in a school yard last December on the 16th. I tried finding the thread...

I returned to the woods that I've been hunting in Battle Creek and managed to snag me a couple of keepers.

It's a four barrel internal hinge that was made from 1938-1944, I put a newer insert in it so that I can use it. I kept the original insert but it's pretty much toast. The knife is an Imperial and I put it back in apple cider vinegar to remove more rust from the iron part of it. I made these...

I didn't find any silver on this trip but I definitely found some neat keepers This coin here is definitely a first for me, it's one of Hitlers coins, it's made of zinc and I was surprised that it held up as well as it did but as you can tell by the v nickel the soil is very forgiving in this...

I went back to a woods I've been hunting in Battle Creek (about 20 miles away) and managed to find me some nice keepers. One of the Indians is in really in good shape and the ring is about the last thing that I found, in fact I was kind of meandering my way out of the woods and my truck was...

The first two pics are from November 4th at a park where I've found silver before

here's most of my keepers this year so far.

On the 23rd I went back the the woods where I found a walker and silver GW and on the 25th I went to my favorite ballpark Here's what I got on the 23rd [attachimg=1] [attachimg=2] [attachimg=3] Here's what I found at the ballpark yesterday, it wasn't a real long hunt but only 45 minutes...

I had a great hunt this morning, I got to the woods around 8AM, it was 35 degrees but I was dressed for it. I'm sure glad that I got an urge to hit this woods again, I got a couple nice silvers, wheats, clad and odds and ends. I found the silver GW first right at the peak of a hill that appeared...

I had a good day at the ballpark, I managed to snag me a silver rosie, warnickel, military button, electrical lug and some clad. The button was really deep but read good so I had to dig it. I even thought that I did a video clip of it til I got home and found out different cause there was no...

My brother and I hunted a woods next to where there use to be a school today. I managed to find me a sterling thimble in really good shape, 4 wheats, neat token, zippo lighter that I pulled the guts out of (they're shot) and some odds and ends. We have hunted this spot before with good luck, I...

On October 13th I went to a schoolyard and October 15th I went to the ballpark On the 13th I managed to get me a couple wheats and a merc in a schoolyard that I've never hunted before thinking that silver would not be there but I was wrong [attachimg=1] [attachimg=2] On the 15th I went to...

August 30th I went to the ball park and on October 1st I went to an old friends house. The first four photo's are what I found at the ball park. I managed to conjure up a couple of silvers, a 1960 Canadian dime and war nickel. [attachimg=1] [attachimg=2] [attachimg=3] [attachimg=4]...

This morning I went back to the same area that I hunted at the ball park yesterday. I figured there might be some more deep silver in the area and sure enough there was, a nice Walking Liberty Half. That big silver really made my day for sure and it's in really good condition with a lot of...
