Hi All, I haven't been on here in forever. Just busy with life and dealing with issues. I went out with my son today and found a 1820 Portuguese 40 Reis copper coin. It took me forever to figure out what I had, but here's one all prettied up as well. Amazing find for me... in Patterson Park...

Hi Detectorists, I've created a blog for a communications class that I'm enrolled in (I'm in my early 50' and still learning!) and I'd be honored if anyone would wish to go and take a look. I've concentrated on the massive Druid Hill Park in Baltimore, Md. as my hunting grounds. Here's the link...

I've been so busy with work but I finally got out today and I decided to go out to Druid Hill Park. This park is massive and very old. 750 acres right in the middle of Baltimore. I've been there before and come up empty handed, but not today. My first Merc, in great shape. It was no move than...

My daughter takes ballet from a school up in the County and I took the opportunity to walk across the street while she twirled the day away to hunt a schoolyard. The school was built in the late 20's, so I thought I might find a thing or two.... To date, I've hauled out over $10 in clad from...

I took a short drive over to Druid Hill Park and went to a spot that I had found a wheat at with the DFX. Low and behold what comes up! No offense, but I traveled this ground with the DFX.... The E-Trac does it again. Another first! She's a beauty, hardly any wear on her. Regards, Ken

One thing that I find extremely forward thinking on the E-Trac is the Xchange program. I can save all my settings on my laptop, load them, edit them on the computer, back to the Etrac... etc. Does anyone see a use for starting an online Xchange library? Just newbie thoughts as I continue to...

Second hunt with the E-Trac. I'm getting it, but it was a slower day for me. No silver today, but I did learn a lot as well as find this little coat of arms down about 7-8. I do love my E-Trac. I do I do I do. I sound like a 3 year old.... :cheesysmile: I found a bit of clad as well. Regards, Ken

First true day out with the E-Trac. 1943 Quarter, 8 inches down. I know for a fact that I went over this exact spot with the DFX. E-Trac, I love you!

So, the ETrac finally arrived a day later than planned, not the dealers fault, I gave him the CC # wrong... duh. Anyway, I was like a kid a Christmas with it and then, I couldn't find batteries. We're renovating the kitchen so stuff is everywhere. Ok, so I finally find batteries and there's...

Hi Everyone, The DFX is sold so now the dealer I was working with that had one E-Trac sold it out from under me. In fairness to him, I did not put down a deposit :crying02:, so he had every right to sell it. Anyone know a dealer with E-Tracs to sell? I'm without a detector here and I feel...

I had the opportunity to get some good finds out of my local park this summer when they decided to redo the entrance steps on the oldest corner of the park. I found 4 buttons and today I was able to identify one. Check it out. Regards, Ken

The park decided to do some capital improvements this year and one project was to tear up the walkway on one of the entrances and redo it. I knew that I'd find stuff because this is in the oldest section of the park that dates back to the 1820's. I named the site the Indian Village because I...

Hi everyone, I managed to get out this morning for a quick hunt before hitting the job. I was using my own program that is based on just the simple Coins preset in the DFX for those of you that use that detector. My goal was to tweak the program to gain more depth. I was picking up clad at 0-4...

I've met some old timers, but most of them are in declining health or have such huge collections from the Good Ole Days that they no longer go out. If anyone would like to get together for detecting, just let me know. I'm always trying to get out in the fresh air. Regards, Ken

Greetings everyone from Baltimore. I'm an avid metal detector and I've gotten back into it after a few years off where I worked way too hard. HH, Ken
