    Yesterday's Foggy Bottom Swamp Hunt

    Found an older baseball diamond on a vintage aerial photo in a park near my house so I decided to go and check it out. It was very foggy and WET. The spot is now all overgrown meadow and marsh (how was this a baseball field 50 years ago???) The amount of screwcaps and pulltabs that I was hearing...

    Early Christmas Presents

    Hunted my fave woods spot on Sunday and snuck out Tuesday Morning to detect an old house that I've hunted before numerous times and a park not too far away and did pretty well. Got 19 wheat cents, 3 older Canadian pennies, an 1864 2 center (my third of the year), a 1901 V nickel, a '47 Roosie 2...

    Woods Hunt (Dec. 17th)

    Got out for 3 hours this morning to my favorite woods spot and found some goodies that I had missed before. 20 wheaties, 2 early 40's Canadians and 3 Mercs ('36, '43 and '45). MAY be the last time for 2011!

    Clawed My Way Into the 200 Club Last Weekend

    My last chance to detect for the year (maybe) was last weekend - between Thanksgiving and the first weekend in December the weather was mostly wet and miserable, I did get out last Saturday and found the last 3 silvers I needed to achieve 200 for the year. Phew! Video...

    Thanksgiving Morning Finds

    I got out to a local park this morning prior to the celebration and got my silver count up to 196 for the year. Ended up with 8 1/2 wheat cents, a 1950D Washington quarter, a 1927 Merc and a very sharp 1921 Canadian dime. Also got a honker .925 ring. Happy Turkey Day everyone!

    Quest for 1000th Wheat Cent This Year

    I had 1 1/2 hours after work (at the most) to try and find 6 wheats. I rushed over to Lola Park - to a spot that has given in the past. Not long into the search I got the first one. 5 more to go. Shortly thereafter, another one. 4 more to go. About 5 minutes of wandering I dug yet another. 3...

    Finds from the last few hunts....

    Got out detecting a few times last week and for several hours on Saturday. Best finds were a St. Christopher visor pin (1940's?) that came from a school from that period on Wednesday and 4 Indians (1897, 1900, 1906 and 1908) that came from an old park. Also scored 18 wheats and an advertising...

    My Oldest Silver Ever!

    Hunted a local school last night - original high school was put up there in 1865 - it burned down in 1916, that's when the current building was constructed. Very small front yard, the rest is all paved over. I had to run TTF the entire time because of all the iron in the ground (probably from...
