    Silver #25 for the year

    Hi All, Had a chance to go out yesterday while the wife was at a school function. Hit a 60 yr old Church with hopes of finding a few silver but mainly looking for toys etc from the big field (lots of kids there in the past). No luck on the silver or the toys. Did manage 5 wheats ringing up...

    Another Injun Today 2-15

    Hi All, Got skunked yesterday, but you can't keep a good Safari down for long. Hit the yard where I found the 2 IH a couple of days ago. Since I found them next to the hex block walkway I figured maybe there are some UNDER the walkway. Sure enough, got a good signal, 31-32-33. Lifted the...

    What do you get with a 36-37 with a touch of 34...

    ... 2 Indian Head Pennies and 2 Wheaties in one hole. Man was I excited when I saw the fat feathers instead of the thin wheats on the back. Had to go to the truck for a quick rinse to make sure. One of them is now my oldest coin. (1882) They had a really nice green patina when they came out...

    SLQ and Ring

    Hi All, Went back to a yard I hit last month. Got a 38-39 tick. Stopped and worked the coil around some other signals. Finally got a good signal 37-38-39, both ways and a good pin point. Found it at about 7 inches. Had some water in the truck and gave it a rinse, man was I surprised to see...

    Two more silvers today.

    Decided to go back to an estate that I have hit once before. This property use to be a country club back in the 20's and 30's I believe. The last time I hunted this property I found a load of faucet type items. Today was no different. At least 8 or 9 hose nozzles type stuff. Did find my...

    Scouting and Hunting with Marty 2-08

    Hi All, Had a chance to do a little scouting down in Sarasota today with Marty another Safari guy. Marty didn't bring his machine due to some physical therapy concerns from his Dr. Told him to talk a couple of weeks off. We met up with a couple of Sheriffs that I know from my MD club. We had...

    2-2-11 finds

    Hello everyone, Went to a local athletic park yesterday hoping to find some BLING! No such luck. Headed back to my neighborhood and hit another neighbor's house that I have not yet hit. Picked up 4 wheaties, 40-50s dates and a '62 rosie. Rang up 37-38 at about 3 inches. That makes 20...

    Nice start to Feb

    Had about an hour to hunt before dinner. Hit a neighbor's house where I have found a 03 Barber Dime and a Merc and Silver Nickel. I got a bouncy signal that was deep. Rang up mostly in the 33 range with a little chirp up to 37. I was thinking penny. Boy was I surprised when I saw the Merc...

    Interesting ID bracelet?

    Hi All, Got out yesterday for an hour and a half. Hit the park where I found the 1901 Barber half, so I know there should be more silver there. Found what I think is an old ID bracelet. Rang up 37-38 at about 8 inches. Pulled it out and it was and still is in rough shape. Got it home and...

    Love this hobby!!

    Had a couple of hours before I had to fly up to Atlanta. Hit a property that I had hit last summer. First swing a fuzzy 37-38. Worked the coil for about a minute to try and get a good signal at different directions. Never got that sweet silver tone, was surprised to see Lady Merc smiling at...

    Not the only one hunting this property!

    Hi All, Good to be back in Florida and out detecting! Got permission to hunt a Church property (about 2-3 acres) that had a lot of old pines and oaks. this was an area of St. Pete that was very rural back in the day. As you can see, lots of shotgun brass. Mostly from the 30's best I can...

    Love those Buffs!

    Hi All, Had a chance to get in a couple of hours of hunting after the rain stopped and before I had to fly to Atlanta for work. Nothing crazy good, but I did manage a couple of wheaties 35-36 and a no date Buffalo nickel 14-15; 6 inches. For some reason I just really like buffs. Been nickel...

    Hope the year continues like this!

    Hi all, Got a chance to hit another yard in my neighborhood today. The wheaties came in at 35-36, the Washington Quarter was a solid sweet tone 39 and the rosie rang up at 38 with a little 37 thrown in to try and trick me. But I was really happy to find my first Tootsie Toy which showed me a...

    Off to a good start!

    Hi Everyone, A neighbor has been intrigued with my detecting and gave me permission to hunt her yard. Her house was built in 1920. I was all over it!! At first I was finding a lot of memorials and then the SR-71 in the pix. Finally a wheat, this gave me some optimism for more. Had a...

    Hit the park again today 31Dec

    It had been so long since I have had a chance to get out, I thought I would go back to the park I hit yesterday just to exercise my ear a bit. Not as many nickels as yesterday but I did manage 9. Also 14 quarters, 22 dimes and 32 pennies. If you thought pulling pennies out with a 38 was...
