    Insane Asylum hunt (Video Added)

    Don and I got out for a rare hunt together at an Insane Asylum. This place is pretty wild. The state ran it for years and years, but they decided to close it about 4 or 5 years ago. This site is over 1200 acres of awesome hunting spots. The buildings are still quite usable, but they all sit...

    Goal met and I get to wear it!

    I met my goal of 50 silvers for the year and got this awesome find! I've seen these before and always wanted one, but I never thought I'd find one... It's a 1934 merc that has been cut out... Whoever made this did a heck of a job around all the letters, I don't know how they got it so precise...

    New Sunray's first find!

    Just got my new X-1 probe for the ET and put it to good use in my own yard. I've hunted this yard a rediculous amount of times and only oddball signals remain, so I decided to dig a few. This target was giving me a really mixed signal, but it did bump to a 12-46 once or twice. I cut my plug and...

    Thought I'd share these...

    A fellow detectorist who lives in Germany found these last week. Actually he found several of them along with some other really neat stuff. I had commented that I'd love to have something like that to show in class to my students. He promptly PM'd me and sent me these!!! The eagle is a Nazi hat...

    1915 School Hunt

    Tonight I went to a school in the Garaway district that I believe was built in 1915, but I'm not really good at the Roman numerals on the front. I hunted this site a couple of years ago with my brother and didn't find anything but clad coins. I was able to hunt the front of the school, but there...
