My wife told me Saturday that she noticed a lot that I hunt had been scraped so Saturday and Sunday I got about 7hrs. in on it . I've hunted this lot...

    Another gold ring

    Went back to where I found the last one on Thursday , stayed with the program and dug all signals . I normally wouldn't have dug this signal because it sounded like a raspy zinc penny .It read 52 screwcap on the M6's screen. Today I was using the 9.5 coil . Not many coins out there anymore as...

    Safe spot today

    Yerbooty's Booty

    This is about a week's worth of finds from numerous short hunts . No big deal but I want to keep in practice on how to post in case I find something worth posting . lol The two silver Rosies are both 54s , the Merc's date is unreadable but I'll take her . The wheats are 44s,46s and 55? I found...

    Gold?

    Hit a hunted out turf spot for about 3Hrs.(that's the crusty clad on top and including the bullet casing). This particular spot gave me a silver Roosie last week but none today or yesterday . Then after dinner I hit a small wood chips playground and got the very fresh shiny money the sandal...

    Another wood chips find

    I did another one of my dirt /wood chips combo hunts .The best find of the chips was a silver ring . It's stamped 925 and something else that I can't make out .The dirt gave up two wheats a 34' and a 45' and the majority of the $1.44 clad that was gathered . This time I hunted for 3hrs. The ring...

    Relaxing hunt

    After a busy day of Honey do's and gotta do's I had about an Hr. and a half of light left and figured I wasn't going to find anything sitting at home . So I grabbed the M6 and headed to the nearest wood chips .I figured if I found 4 or 5 clads out of there I would be doing good . Well I actually...

    Return to the Garden of Crud

    Well , I went back to the spot I've been pounding and managed to pull out another silver , a 62D Roosie . This time I put the 6x8 SEF coil on the Explorer SE and put in 4 1/2 hrs. of low and slow .The signals were far and few between and most were next to tree roots which made for a real fun...

    Hidden amongst the clad (twice)

    I'm still hitting that same spot that I found my last two silvers and wheats .I've gotten in two more hunts since I last posted .I didn't post because one day was just a little over a couple more bucks in clad and three wheats 46,56 and 57 and the next day was about a buck and a half in clad . I...

    Hit the spot again.....

    I put another 4 hrs. into the spot where I found the Merc' two days ago . I had visions of putting my coil over more silver than I did but it didn't work out that way . Maybe next time . I ended up with 62' silver Roosie, 2 - 58'Wheats a 63' Canadian penny , $2.50 in clad and a whole lot of junk...
