Got out in between down pours last week and just too darn wet to do much! Went to a house that belonged to my Granny Gross for years and found very little. The one that stuck out was a Chinese coin and what I find out about it it seems quite old. The other was a wheat so eroded away I can barely...

After a dry spell from detecting, took my hunting buddy out today after Mother's Day dinner and we found a spot behind a church that was used as a picnic ground and then later must have been a dump.

Well, today was the 3rd or 4th time I went to an old house on my cousins farm and have been getting used to my new EuroTek Pro and have figured out some things for the better! The EuroTek Pro lived up to its claim to fame today. This old house place has any & all kinds of metal trash strewn...
