Well.....after wanting to try detecting for a long time, I finally decided to get a "starter" metal detector (2nd hand off of Craigslist).
I figured I would spend some time in my backyard getting used to the detector. I've only spent maybe a total of 15-20 hours detecting over the last 2 weeks or so and I'm already addicted!!
I am amazed at how much I have found just in my own back-yard and in the woods behind my house.
Here are just a few of the more interesting items that I've found:
1. ox-shoe
2. antique men's onyx ring
3. 3 early 20th century shot gun shells (1902-1910)
4. old hunting knife
5. a lot of coins (nothing very old - only 1 wheat cent).
I can't wait to take it out on the road.
