    There isn't a witch or wizard that went bad.....

    I've used that reference I know but it fits. Here are some finds from today. Two 925 rings. Mood ring. UK coin. Costume pendant. [attachment 132337 070909-2.JPG] I won't bore you with the clad but there was a pile. Chris

    I got out early too.

    I hit three new sites. One was too wet to hunt properly. It produced most of the quarters, though. The other two were old schools which I think have been heavily hunted. I found nothing old at all and hardly any quarters. A lot of nickels and pennies, though which have been in the ground...

    Friday 07/03 Road Trip and Loose Ends

    Went up home to see the family. It rained and rained. Also rained on and off on the drive home today. I stopped and detected a few places and was interrupted by rain every time. The first pic is the first 4 sites. I only got a few minutes at two of the sites. The first site produced a...

    Hey look what I got in my change!

    First ever proof coin for me. Too bad it's scratched. The reverse is fine. Chris

    Gotta make hay when the sun is shining.

    The sun was shining all spring and I cut a lot of hay. Now that summer is here the hay might be drying up and I feel myself fading. Hot out and muggy as heck. I wanted an early start which didn't happen. Got to yesterday's site and my first find was a wheat. This site produces around 5...

    Man am I stupid (Story and Hunt)

    My neighbors who are generally pretty respectful had some trouble last night. Their trouble kept me up all night and at 4 am I was boiling over and called the cops. I thought the police would ask them to keep it down and leave. Turns out they found drugs and fireworks and took my neighbor to...

    Congratulations John on your article in The Searcher!

    I see you once again had a testimonial published in "The Searcher." Nice story. I recognize all those finds from here too! I don't know if any other regulars here were also published. I must say this was a particularly good issue. Most of the finds were a cut above. Made me feel like...

    Best find from Sunday 6/21/09

    Went out looking for silver coins again. I am on a serious drought with them. I did get my oldest ever IH cent which is just as good as silver in my book. 1873. Close 3. My third oldest US coin of all time. Chris Click on the photo for a close up.

    For you DJR (Friday 6/16)

    Here's something I always say. Never trust your weather man. NEVER! Went to bed and the last report I heard said rain all day today. Woke up and that had changed to chance of rain 30%, cloudy, warm and muggy. The sun is shining now. I was wanting to hunt (that is almost always the case)...

    Haven't posted a hunt in a while.

    We have 5 straight days of rain in the forecast so I did something I haven't done in ages and hunted before work on a Wednesday. Nothing all that great. My usual mess of clad including a nice 11 quarter spill. A Kennedy half, which are as scarce as............ around here. A real cool...

    I'm officially retiring........

    the paper towel I've been using to set my finds on after rinsing them. Yes, I realize that the title of this post is ridiculous and misleading. Yesterday I found a silver ring on my first dig. Today I had to wait until my third dig. I was in an old park around 7 am this morning and I had...

    I'm on a clad picture boycott. (Saturday Hunt.)

    I refuse to post photos of my clad until I see some Canadian coins from Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada. I went out today and never really got into it. I rushed from site to site. Probably should have stayed home. My first dig was a 925 ring, though. Cool group of dolphins. Pictured with the...

    In the words of my hero, "Went out after supper and manged to squeeze out this pittance."

    A 1.25 hour hunt. Atypical for me. I can still do a short hunt and have fun and find some great loot. Last weekend marathon produced a lot of coins but nothing precious. Tonight I got a heavy silver ring that rang up on penny. I wondered why. As I polished it up, I saw it also contained a...

    Catastrophe!!!

    The worst thing that has happened to me in about 8-10 months happened today. I arrived at my site of choice and found that I had left my Pro-Pointer home! Sorry if I scared you. Anyhow. I ended up finding 103 coins in 2 hours at an old park. I went there last Sunday but didn't post it. I...

    A few loose ends. Your help is needed within.

    Question 1: I found these items last week. One has writing on it that reads "M C & S" Copyright 2002. When I searched this I got a hint that it might be a token of some sort but found no pictures or confirmation. The appear to be bronze. Any suggestions? They are the size of a US quarter...

    Posting one of my super clad hunts for your enjoyment. (Or not.)

    Today I took another road trip with the goal of reaching 5605 total coins in 2009. I needed 261 coins which sounded fairly easy on paper. It took me 5 sites and 7 hours to do it. [attachment 128237 053009-2.JPG] 5605 coins is how many coins I found in all of 2007 and I used to think it would...

    A tale of three hunts. On a bit of a silver streak.

    As briefly as I can write. I was off to Utica, NY to see my niece for her birthday. I hit and old park when I got to town and found the 1964 silver dime right away. I got excited and continued to poke around in the area. Only found clad and had one of my famous MD incidents. I was the only...
