    An F-75 LTD find, CS belt plate

    Just found out that I made one of the Best Finds for 2015 in W&E Treasures magazine. Received a certificate and complimentary copy in the mail the other day. This was the best find I have ever made. In the same area, I found a Block C button also, with the Courney & Hinnant backmark, in...

    CS Plate find

    I finally made one of the finds of the year, 2015, in this month's issue of W&E Treasures magazine. I have been a follower of this magazine since I was a teenager in 1977 and I finally made a find of the year. Pretty pumped.

    Union camp finds since July, Goldsboro

    Here are photos of my hunts since July from the spot I have been pounding. Many of the finds are pieces of items that I have no clue what they may have been from, but many are CW related. Any comments on item ID would be appreciated. There are several that I am really curious about. I know...

    Found my first Block C button today!

    I was detecting a particular spot that has been producing some nice CS items today with my Fisher F-75 LTD in Goldsboro, NC, and found my first Confederate Block C button! Backmark is Courtney & Tennant, a Charleston, SC manufacturer. It is also the rarer of the Block C's according to Albert's...

    Interesting experience this month with my F-75 LTD

    I have a few spots here in Goldsboro that I have been pounding lately. There was quite a bit of trash, so I set disc to anywhere from 50 to max, because time was precious and short. I found a few coins and brass and low and behold, a CS buckle shows up (Presently, a Treasurenet Banner find)...

    After 26 years of detecting Goldsboro, NC....CS Buckle!!

    2 days ago I detected a particular spot in Goldsboro, NC and came up with the find of my lifetime. I have been here and detected hard since 1989, and suddenly there it was. It has been ID'ed as a clip-corner CS buckle. Perseverance has finally paid off. The Fisher F-75 LTD gave me a solid 83...

    More CS Buckle pics

    I figured the pic thing out, here they are. I found the Union bullet about 10 feet away from the buckle. Obviously a drop, with part of the casing still attached. Again, found on Sat the 8th of Aug in Goldsboro, NC.

    Copper coin found with large 1 on reverse, about the size of a dime

    I am sorry, I don't have a pic yet, but I found this apparently copper coin, a bit thinner than a dime but about the same size, in NC. You can clearly see a large, thick, number 1 on the back. the obverse side seems to have a faint image of an eagle, perhaps even the type that is on the old...

    Fisher 1280X on NC Beaches--experiences?

    I am curious about this particular detector. The CZ-21 is too pricey. Can anyone share their opinions and experience using the 1280 on NC beaches? Is it stable in vs out of the water. I had a White's ID 300 that I used several times at Onslow Beach. I found that it was very sensitive, yet...

    Emerald Isle, NC BHID 300

    Well, went to the beach for the third time ever with the BHID 300. First 2 times was Onslow Beach at Camp Lejeune, which is not the busiest beach around, therefore slim on finds. This past week, I went to a busier beach, namely Emerald Isle. Still no rings. But the BHID 300 has the...

    "....some broke metal detector dude"????

    Just read this ring return in the news. That lady sure has a sad view of detectorists...broke.... perhaps the honesty and kindheartedness of the finder will change her view......http://www.foxnews.com/us/2014/08/30/lost-13g-wedding-ring-found-on-ny-beach-returned/?intcmp=latestnews

    Where are all of the BHID 300 praises??

    I just bought one and read very little in the forums from users. I know they are out there, there are some diehards, but I just don't see much on this detector. I just got one, but don't get to the beach too often due to family responsibilities....hopefully soon I will have some success...

    I am amazed at how little info/talk there is on the BHID 300

    Poor White'sBHID 300. I just bought one and know it is a capable detector, yet it is frustrating that so little is seen on the forums with this detector. Or is it just me. Seems that the BHID 300 is a secret that some successful guys are keeping to themselves...or Excal-mania has drowned it...

    Wow, Garrett Pro Pointer problem fixed by Garrett...free

    My Propointer began to mysteriously continually beep after about 10 seconds and I would constantly have to turn it off and back on again just to go through the process again. I sent it in to Garrett last week. I just called and the rep said it is on its way back to me and there will be no...

    Stavr Scoops

    I am really leaning heavily on buying one of these scoops, the 2.2. Question is, where is the best and safest way to purchase one? I understand they are made overseas and purchased via Western Union or something to that effect. I just want to hear about the experience of others so I...

    Thanks to the Fisher folks again

    I recently sent my F-75 to Fisher to have a problem fixed. I was detecting one day, no problems. Then decided to go in the water about a foot deep. I was only in the water a couple minutes and came back out. The detector started making all of these random sounds and would not detect...

    Has anyone had any good finds in small creeks?

    I am considering hitting several small creeks, about 10' wide, and am curious if anyone has found cool stuff in this type of location. I know of several creeks near me. One had a plantation home about 100 yards away and surely they used the creek alot in the mid 1800's. The other spot is an...
