    Nephew. Senior project. Beginner's luck.

    My nephew has to do a senior project for school. this is his senior year. It has to be about a career choice and you have to put in so-many hours shadowing a person in that field, and have to do a report, and have to have visual aids, etc, etc, etc. I don't know how he got THIS approved, but...

    printing press? emblem?

    I found this detecting near a late 1800's one-room school house. It looks like a wreath is on it. heavy, as if cast iron. I included pictures. It looks like it fits into something, an imprinter from a printing press? I wonder what the logo is? thanks in advance!

    Pittsburgh cladfest and keys

    Had a fun day hunting a Pittsburgh park. No jewelery, no relics, no silvers, and the oldest I got was a 1939 wheatie. Great weather and met a guy who also had an Etrac and a member of the other Pittsburgh area metal detecting club than mine. I gave him some tips on the Etrac on settings for the...

    V3i backlit display

    I had about 1/2 hour before dark and decided to take my V3i out to a local little league park to detect around the areas where people sit and watch the games. It's usually a clad-fest, which is fun when you only have a limited time. This was the first time I really had the V3i out not in the...

    Rings, Nickels, and why you dig it

I had about 1/2 hour before it started getting dark so I decided to take the V3i out to the little league baseball...

We were hoping to hit something great at the last minute to enter into the monthly contest at the meeting in one of the categories 'best coin', 'best jewelry' or 'best whatever', and hopefully some things to...
