    A motley assortment from a 3 hr beach hunt!!!

    A small window of opportunity (3hours) to go to the beach gave me a small assortment of finds. I was really hoping for gold or silver but not this time. I did detect a nice pair of sun glasses but they fell out of my pocket so someone else can find them out there!! The watch was working great...

    A few past finds detected by a Safari.

    I wanted to post just a few past finds (max pics allowed are only 6 pics) as things seem dare I say a little slow and stale? on this particular Forum. I must admit, I myself will post finds on the Beach and Scuba Forum or the Today's Finds Forum but skip posting here. The motivation behind doing...

    Ground Balancing Question G.B. or not G.B.?

    I would like to bring up what I think is a legit question and that has not been addressed for a long time. What do you personally do when you are in a park or any location that is so chock-a-block full of trash and it's so hard to find a spot that comes up clean enough to ground balance your...

    925 Silver letter Opener!

    Well, I'm guessing this is a letter opener and is stamped (925) that I detected today from the same park I got a gold ring from the other day!! Although I don't think it's that old, it's silver and the coolest and most prettiest one Ive seen for a very long time! 44+ grams of 925.....I'll take...

    Keeping A Good Perspective.

I wanted to start another thread on this site (didn't have any new finds to post in the 'Today's Finds' Forum)!! knowing the...

    14K Gold Ring....Come To Pappa!:clapping:

    For all those newbies that may have concerns about the Minelabs with FBS, multi tones, if it's in the ground, your detector (in my case a Safari) WILL detect it. The rest is up to you to interpret the signal and your decision to dig or not. I found this ring today which is one of many gold...

    14K Gold Ring....Come To Pappa!:clapping:

    My Minelab Safari was running hot today! I detected this sweet gold ring in a local park. I asked it if it wanted to stay in the ground for a few more years or come to Pappa and I'll give it a good home?:smile: Guess what? It said YES!! please take me home!!!!

    Oh, that elusive gold!

    My time has been totally taken up by fixing up some of my trashed rental property. The previous tenants snook in 3 dogs unknown to us....UGH!:rant: they trashed it really, REALLY!!! good. It needed new carpets, painting throughout and linoleum etc; etc;. Anyway, I managed to squeeze in a short 4...

    What do you do with your pull tabs and junk?

    Just looking for your opinions here! I see a lot of guy's posting pic's of their pull tabs and assorted junk targets along with maybe one or two good finds. Not criticizing but just an observation here so don't take it personal! I personally cannot wait to unload all those pull tabs, rusty...

    Old English coins and old English gold!

    I just spent 2 weeks in England and instead of doing some serious metal detecting (which was the original plan) ended up mostly sightseeing and squeezing in just 3 metal detecting hunts. I went back to a spot that I had previously detected in past years that I figure had lain mostly undisturbed...

    1941 10K Class Ring!

    Not finding anything of value on the last few of my beach trips, except the usual handful of modern coins, I've lately been detecting an old home site in the foothills of the San Gabriel's where I live. The house is down to the foundations but the 2nd trip today to the site yielded this cute...

    I went looking for a silver token insert, found a silver ring and Kennedy 1/2 instead!

    I went back to the park where I detected a gaming token with the middle silver insert missing. I felt confident I would get it but after a thorough search, no luck. Instead, I changed settings and I went for a hunt for the deep silver which I know is there mixed up with all the other tons of...

    $10 999 silver gaming token and a crucifix

    Finally Southern California is getting the rain we needed so badly and I decided to slip out between the storms with my Safari and detect a local park. The token is solid silver 18.5 grams and the cross is just junk metal but still kinda pretty! H.H. everyone!

    $10 999 silver Boomtown gaming token and a crucifix

    I slipped out before the next storm came rolling in to hunt a local park and detected these 2 pieces. Not being a gambler and never seeing one of these before, I did not see until I got home that the token was 999 silver! 18.5 grams! The crucifix is just junk metal but still kinda pretty! It's...

    I couldn't help but share this find with you. This is a metal detectorist's dream find! OOppss I could not paste the link. $10 million (in coin value) in gold coins was found in California today (it is in the news) and the coins from the 1800's were mostly uncirculated!
