    More moldy oldies again - FWIW :unsure:

    Well i returned to the area of the park where i found those other toasted coins the other day this time with my Tornado coil. The good news, its an oldie hot spot.... the bad news, the soil there has not been exactly kind to most copper based coins. Though one of the Indians is in half-way...

    First time out in a long time...just some moldy oldies

    Sunny and mid 70s, so made time to get in some detecting at one of my favorite pounded parks. Charged the batteries, slapped on my Hunter coil and away i went. Decided to hunt a remote area of the park i only lightly detected a couple years ago. The Barber was about 5 inches and the rest were...

    Whats your funniest belly laughing true story?

    I need a good laugh these days problem is there's not much to laugh at with one catastrophe after another happening lately. So i looked back for some humorous incidents. I suppose laughing can loosely be called a hobby. Meditation Day at the religious retreat Think it was 8th grade when we were...

    Looks like a strange Indian Summer this year!

    Had a couple hrs. free time today so decided to go back to that hyper pounded park where i found the arrow head and Indian a few days ago. After digging up junk upon junk any iffy signal was far game now. To say this ID was iffy is an understatement. Only thing was it was a no ryme or reason...

    Question? Has anyone here found a gold coin?

    Been on this here forum for a while now and don't recall anyone finding or posting a pic of dug up gold coin. Gold jewelry yes lots of those but no gold coins. Out of all the members here, someone surely had to find a gold coin i'd think. The only gold coins i've seen posted on the public...

    eTRAC finds arrowhead!

    Was out a few days ago at one of my favorite pounded parks and finally got around to get pics of a couple finds that day. Chased a real iffy nickel ID, dug and turned up another @$#%^ pull tab. While filling the hole noticed a what looked like some kind of strange pointed rock. Turned out to be...

    First silver of the year!

    I don't normally post silver finds unless there's something unusual about them. This was my second time out this year, the first was a near disaster. Searched the trashiest area of a park and was finding only the occassional clad, pull tabs, iron, etc. then all of a sudden hit two wheats in a...

    Just when you least expect it, silver in the hole

    Been thinking back on a lot of my silver finds and one thing keeps popping up. It usually happens when i least expect it. I'm talking about sites where silver is scarce like a pounded park for example. I'll be searching a site with few finds even sometimes on the verge of being silver skunked...

    Thinking on getting one of these - some dumb questions

    Looking to buy another detector this Spring and looking hard at one of these. From reading some of the threads, it appears there's a loyal following for these detectors so there must be good reasons. Some questions for you Nokta veterans if you would. 1. Whats the difference between Nokta...

    Drivers Beware! Deer Season=FAIL

    Not sure if this is the right place to post this but here goes. Had a touch of cabin fever today so i decided to take the Jeep out for a joy ride an hour or so before dusk. First of all i have to say i live in a sparsely populated mostly agriculture based County. First off i spot in the...

    Any old timers out there?

    Been think'n about the old times and how things have changed today, back then: - Strict school dress codes, in my public high school no less - Swim class in high school was bare a$$ - Round screen'd black and white Televisions - TV/radio tube testers at the local drug store - Back then women...

    Others digging up silver IN WINTER!

    Some of us in the frigid north are forced by mother nature to mothball our detecting gear this time of year while some lucky one's in more humane climates can still get out there and dig just about all year. Ground here is @#$&^% frozen solid! It ain't fair i tell you! :cry::lol: At least its...

    Return to Jamima park produces a Barber

    Now i normally don't post pics of just one decent find but this is getting weirder and wierder this Aunt Jemima thing. Today i returned to the Jemima spot where i searched last Sunday not expecting anything as i covered that area thoroughly and only had an hour or so to detect. This time i...

    Aunt Jemima leads to a silver day

    Warning.... slightly long story, may even be boring to some but it is what it is. Was it co-incidence, a preminition, something spookier or what? It all started last Saturday morning when i was all out of breakfast type food. Remembered i had some frozen pancakes in the freezer somewhere. Found...

    I'll take em one at a time - add another Barber

    On my way to do some errands a few days ago passed a pounded park and decided to give a quick hour hunt. After a little over an hour of detecting, this is the only coin i found. Thats OK, i'll take em one at a time. It was about 7" deep and off to the side of the hole as usual. Don't know if it...
