Here are our best finds for 2013. This year we changed how we hunted concentrating more on old farm house's and fields and while quantity was down the quality of our finds was enhanced! Great year for Indian Heads I got 20 and Diane got 6 both highs for us. I also got my first 2 Fatty Indians...

A video of the last few hunts showing Large Cent 1837, 1911 Wheat and a 1912-D Barber Dime....three Century coins anyway!

Got out yesterday to get in one more hunt before the rain and cold ends this year off. Went to an new site in a field that had an old house on it. Major iron in the ground here. Got some relics and amidst the iron the CTX gave me a squeak and a 14-45 TID that was just a narrow band but it...

I always look at my change at a store, occasionally I get a wheatie or two but today it was a bit different. Made a purchase at Walmart and in my change was this!

My most memorable find is when I broke into the 1700's club. We had returned to an old house where we had hunted before with my hunting partner Doug had gotten two Large Cents and two Two Cent Pieces and I had gotten an Indian Head and a Large Dandy Button. We had only found a flat button apiece...

Written a couple of years ago...but oh so relevant again...sigh! A Winter View As I look out the window I see snow a falling And in the corner my E-Trac is a calling “Not now my trusty friend” “We must wait till the snow will end” The targets are there they will wait Until the snowy weather...

Where did all the threads go in each forum? It looks like each time you go to a forum you have to tell it how long back to display, sort of an annoyance.

Last couple of hunts have not produced any old coins but did get a few relics. Diane got two nice buttons, if any can help ID the large gilt button I would appreciate it, my old eyes can't quite make out the back mark. I got some kind of finial a marble and my best find a Native American Hammer...

I was able to get out for a bit Friday, conditions were better sunshine but cold, ground frozen in spots and spots muddy. Went to a field second time there found some relics but no coins did get a nice brass cattle tag. Decided to head back home and remembered a spot that I had not checked out...

Did a couple of field hunts on Tuesday and Wednesday, first I went out by myself to a field where I have found a couple Indians the weekend before I was hoping to duplicate that but did even better with a total of three, an 1886, 1893 and a 1902. Also found a few artifacts. Diane went with me on...

We have had a couple of decent days this week, went out to a new site on Friday to check out if we could find a home site in this huge field. After about an hour of searching I finally nailed down the primary site. We found a bunch of relics, buckles, axe heads, decorative pieces of copper or...

Spent a few hours hunting a couple of new field sites, while not a lot of fantastic finds we got some keepers. One field I am going call the buckle field since we have found at least 10 buckles there. Diane got a nice brass name plate for the Cheyney Talking Machine Co. that dates from the early...

Today Doug came down and joined Diane and me to go out for a field hunt. Taking advantage of a nice day I decided to head back to a field I only got to hunt once last year and where the only good find was an Indian head. My research last year showed that there was a house here and one in the...

:peace: Incredibly fast response, superior service....you can't go wrong!

Today Doug and I got an early start and hit the Eagle field to see if we could get some keepers from it. We had a great day, Doug got an 1883 Indian that is in super condition, and some relics. I started out with a few relics, pocket watch pieces, I have dug at least a dozen pieces from...

First good find from the fields so far this young season is also a first for me. I was getting a 12-23 on the CTX good solid signal and was thinking flat button when this tired but much desired coin reminded me of a favorite piece of scripture. Isaiah 40:31 Yet those who wait for the LORD Will...

A friend invited us to a hunt at an old house. He is just getting started in detecting and he bought the Ace 250 I had for sale. This would be a one time shot since the property is going up for auction this Friday. He gave me the address and I looked it up on the old map and determined that...

Monday was a gorgeous day just begging us to go out and hunt. Doug, Malachi, Diane and I decided to go to the old park and try our luck there. This place has given us many good finds over the last couple of years but it is much more difficult to find an old coin there. We have found Seated...

We did not let the rain stop us today, scattered showers and moments of clearing made for an interesting day. Our best finds were at a house built in the late 20's early 30's. We have hunted this a bit before with about a half dozen wheats our total before. Diane blew that number away easily...

Like any job or hobby one tool is not enough. One needs more than one arrow in his quiver. Terry aka Goes4ever on the forums and Youtube told me his experience in using a Tesoro Compadre to hunt in fields after digging all the high tones that he found with his E-Trac. The single frequency...
