It was great to finally get out today to move a little dirt. I went to the old farm and dug up a lot of nails and stuff. I did finally get my first silver thimble:happydance01:.

I finally got out today to do some water hunts and found a few nice finds. The one that I really like is my first lead figure, and it`s a prospectors mule. It`s legs are broke but she still stands.

Hey diggers, I went out yesterday for a 3yr hunt at a new ground I hadn't been before. There were so many targets, I almost got tried of digging. I dug over 80 targets, a total of $9.40 in clad, two sterling silver pieces and some brass. The one large piece of brass I`m not sure what it was...

I found this on the farm today and I was wondering if anyone had any ideas. Unfortunately it didn't come with the back.

I detected an old home site yesterday deep in the woods and was able to pull this out of the ground only a few inchs deep. I was wondering if this is shoe buckle / how old?

I hit the farm again today and found a few more pieces. It was nice having the field down enough to get in there. The wheaty is a 1917. The old slide bolt looks like it was hand made. The other brass looks like it was either a handle or a foot.

Hi all, I was recently helping a friend of mine cleaning out his dad`s crawl space and came across his dad`s treasure chest ,which he had made several years ago before he had pasted away. I remembered when his dad had built this (He was like my mentor). Anyway, when I asked his son about it...

Thanks Drew

Went out yesterday after I got off of work. And found these two Indians within two hours. The one is a 1879 and the other I`m not sure yet, all I can get is 18?7. I`m hoping it loosens up to be a 7 . Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. Happy Thanksgiving. Ps, I`ll try to get clearer shots.

Found this today at an old park. Any ideas? Thanks

Hi all, sorry I haven`t been posting much lately, but I finally got out this past weekend just digging clad and found these three interesting pieces. This is the biggest shell casing I`ve ever seen along with another eagle button and the Budda badge I`m not sure about. Still pretty cool. Thanks...

I did a little surf and turf detecting yesterday. I seem to finding more interesting stuff from the water than I do on land. This copper top has me stumped. Any ideas?

As some of you may know, I`ve been water detecting a lot this summer. Well last weekend I pulled this thing out of the water. It`s caked with sand inside and I don`t know how to open it without breaking it. Any ideas what it was. It looks to date back to 1885. Thanks for looking and stay cool.

I went out water detecting again yesterday where I`ve found 5 silver so far. This time out I dug out this L.C. It`s been soaking in olive oil. Is that the right thing to do? And being that it came out of the water, can it be saved? What else can I do?

I went out again yesterday for a short hunt to get my feet wet and explore a little more. I found my 5th silver in 6 trips :bananadance:.This time I got a 43 Washington, along with 7 more oz of lead.

I got out yesterday for another water hunt. Not many targets, but I`m not sure about the chain. It looks like a dog chain but when it comes out of the water,(black). :dontknow: I cant find any markings on it.

Went out water detecting again today , and found my third silver in a row. This time out I got an old silver ring, ( I looked for the stone, but no luck). Looks like its been in the water for some time. Now to clean it. Baking soda method?
