Hi everyone. I am from Tulsa, Oklahoma and have been at it for about a year and a half. I am a coin shooter with a love for silver ( I would like gold too but just can’t find any!). I also like to hit ghost towns to find relics. I have been told this is a straight shooting, no nonsense forum of serious detectorists and I promise to try to fit in. I look forward to living vicariously through your great finds and to show you what I dig up if I am so lucky to find something worth posting. Happy digging!!
 
You'll find plenty worth posting. :yes: Have you already found anything that you like?....post it |:cheering: ....and welcome!

I found a Steele and Johnson Waterbury CT general service button yesterday and the goodies below on Tuesday at a ghost town.

Welcome from western MA. Sounds like you are feet first into this metal detecting thing. I also am a coinshooter but sometimes a nice relic gets under my coil. Looking forward to your future finds.

It wasn't afluke that you found our forum! lol

No nonsense? Uh oh, somebody forgot to tell me! :teasing:

Seriously, glad to have you here! It looks like you have been finding some neat stuff. I'm glad del pointed out the Barber, I almost didn't see it.

Best of luck with your detecting, keep us posted on your finds! :yes:
 
Thanks for the welcome guys, I think I will like this place. Dpdave38 will have to bear all responsibilty for my being here so blame him and not me. Thanks del for help with the identification of my ghost town finds. Tony Two-Cent knows that serious and funny can go together. I gotta love his name as it reminds me of my best find ever. I will take the liberty to post a picture but promise not to post anything else I found before I found this forum. Cheers to all!

Wow, awesome two-cent piece! :loveit:

And a less common date too! :yes:

What type of site did you find that in? A park or some other kind of site?
 
Welcome to our corner of the internet afluke. :clapping: It is really nice you joined the group. thumbsup01

You are right, there are many very talented treasure hunters here. :yes: Lots of great folks willing to share, answer
questions and identify the unknowns... especially the guy named del.

You summed up my profile exactly. :clapping: Here's hoping we both find some gold soon. :beerbuddy:
