Brrrrrrrrrr, what a cold day here in Connecticut with the North wind blowing. I detected back at my spot for a couple hours until my fingers and toes were frozen. Plucked one more Silver a 1954 Rosie, a cool poodle dog trinket and five more Wheaties for the pile.. I'll try again tomorrow, there...

I've not been around for awhile which is shame on me. None the less, I have bought and sold the E-Trac twice and this time finally figured it out. Don't ask me why but this time we just clicked. I'm happy with it now, thankfully.. I found a new spot at an old swing set and have found to date 21...

Went to the park and met up with Angel. He was the smart one and brought his shovel.. The ground was very frustrating, most areas were rock hard and you had to find the soft areas which made it not to fun. I almost called it quits then hit this ring I tough was Silver but turned out to be junk...

It's so cold out there and today we had rain.. I do miss the nice warm hunting weather but it will come back. I was thinking as my hands and feet were frozen, what am I doing out here? I guess it's from the same disease we all suffer from.. Went to the spot I've been lucky at hitting the Merc's...

Woke up this morning to four inches of the dreaded stuff.. Checked out a few local parks and all covered with snow. What the heck, I'll go south and hope they did not get any. Got to the park, found there was no snow on the ground and saw only one car and one man out there. Guess who? Yep it was...

Today was cold, wet and very dreary. I had to get out and give the E-Trac a test run and am quite pleased. I hunted at two spots that I have been over countless times and pulled two Mercs, a 1937 and 1939 and four Wheaties. The small copper disc is junk.. The '37 must have been close to...

Today was pretty windy and chilly here in Connecticut. Went back to the site that I've been hitting Wheaties and found one Merc last weekend. Well today the Silver Gods were smiling upon me and found five, two in one hole, a first and the Buffalo, my second in the same hole as another Merc and...

Well my search is over for a good deal on an E-Trac.. Catskillcomics (Scott) was kind enough to let me in on a lead on a barely used one from a nice gent.. We talked for awhile this morning and struck a deal. Can't wait to give it a spin.. Hopefully I'll be posting some deep Silver finds.. Bruce

No Silver though. No stamping on the rings although the larger one is heavy and looks Silver. Small one...
