    going to Frico

    Hey Y'all, I'm getting ready to go to the Outer Banks (Frisco) and was wondering if anyone knew what the laws would be for metal detecting there....I've read some things that lean toward not being able to on the beach, but what about the campground? Metal detecting minds want to...

    what are the chances

    What are the chances of finding two british pennies 5 miles apart, one dated 1940 found in our front yard and the other dated 1868 found at an old homesite up the road....Notice that the arm holding the pitch fork is in a different position on each one...:detecting:.......I love this hobby HP

    anyone seen one of these?

    I found this today at another homesite that I decided to try out....The funny thing is that it was laying on top of the ground. It also looks like someone had done some grading in there about 2 years ago...The half dollar is to size. HP
