    Silver Dollar Day

    Sorry, I haven't been on here for a while. We've been very busy at work and I haven't had the opportunity to go hunting much. I did get a chance to go to an old church that I've been wanting to hunt for a long time. I was told that it had been hunted many times, but I still wanted to try. It was...

    Debby's Big silver day

    On the way to Springfield today, my girlfriend Debby, asked me to get off at the next exit so she could use the restroom. I stopped at Mcdonald's, on her way out she bought a soda and the cashier gave her a 1928 standing liberty quarter with her change! I couldn't believe it, what are the odds...

    Silver from two hunts this week

    Thursday after work I got a chance to hunt an older home in town. The weather is so dry here that I normally wouldn't ask someone to hunt their yard, but this one is so unkempt that I didn't hesitate to ask. I found a 1913 Barber dime next to a tree about 5 inches down, then a few feet from that...

    First large cent and another Barber Half

    I went back to a house that I've hunted many times, but never found any silver. There's a really trashy area that's full of nails, junk metal, pull tabs and other trash, that I've been through several times with no luck. Today, I got an iffy 1-47 signal one way, and it just kept jumping around...

    Second half dollar 1902 O Barber

    I went back to the house where I found my first silver half dollar, a 1953 Franklin. I didn't get to hunt as long, but did have a few good finds, 1916 merc, 1947s rosie, 1890 indian, 2 buffalos, and five wheats. My best find was a 1902 O Barber half, that's in great shape, I can't believe that...

    First half dollar

    After work today, I got permission to hunt an older house in town, I started about 3:00 and hunted until 7:30 this evening. In that amount of time, I found a 1928 mercury, 4 rosies, 1943 war nickel, 1923 buffalo, 2 indians, and 5 wheaties. I also found a watch, and few other things, finding all...

    First Civil War button

    A friend of mine rents an older home in the country, he's not sure the age of the house. I dug this button there, it showed a solid FE-C0 of 12-35. I'm pretty sure it's an officer's infantry button. I've found 3 indian heads, several wheaties, but no silver yet. Mike

    First seated coin

    Because of work and the weather, I haven't had a chance to do much detecting. I got off work a little early yesterday, but had no place to hunt, so I went to one of the most hunted parks in town. I haven't found any silver there in several months, but I got a 10-44 reading which I thought was a...

    Good day hunting

    I had gotten off work a little early today, so I hit this older church out in the country. I probably got four good hours of hunting in before it started raining. I found seven silver coins, three mercs, three roseys, 1943 war nickel, and 11 wheaties. That makes 43 silver this year, but i'm...

    I have a problem

    I live in a small town in Missouri, there are several old churches and a few parks that we are allowed to hunt. My problem is, for the past couple of months when I go to these places, there's someone who has been detecting who's giving us a bad reputation. I can tell it's the same person because...

    26th silver of the year is in awesome shape!

    I got out for a hour after work yesterday, hunted an old empty lot in town. I've found a few wheaties there Sunday, but no silver. The only coins that I found yesterday were a 1967 clad dime, and this 1914 D Barber dime. The Barber was up on its end about 8 inches down. I could only get a good...

    Fe-Co #

    Does anyone else ever get decaying zinc pennies ringing up Fe-Co numbers of 11-44, 12-44, 11-45, or 12-45? It seems to do it more if I have the sensitivity turned up high. Mike

    Gray ghost headphone

    I use the gray ghost NDT headphones with my etrac, and I've had them for 4 months. Today while hunting, the left side headphone stop working. I know they have a lifetime warranty, but does anyone know how long it will take for them to be repaired? I'm sure it's probably a simple fix, but I just...

    Number 13 and 14 silver coins today

    I've had my new etrac for six weeks now, and found my 13th and 14th silver coin today. I hit a local yard after work today, found a 1958 quarter, 1942 merc dime, and a 1945 nickel. All three coins were 6 to 7 inches down, this machine is a silver magnet. I also found a few clad coins, about 43...
