    My First Rolex! Didn't see it coming!

    Yep, you read that right, I found my first Rolex watch on Saturday Morning. But the catch is, it's a fake! But boy did my heart start racing when I pulled back the plug and saw the glimmer of gold at the bottom of the hole. I knew right away I had found an imitation, because there was no writing...

    Silver In The Rain

    I really love to detect, even if it's raining and it's winter time. The winter weather gets me digging where I usually don't go in the summer weather. Pulled this out of the lake at an undisclosed location, and I was pleasantly surprised to find it. A 1940 Jefferson. All kinds of detectors...

    This Mornings 1941 Silver Walker

    Found this little treasure in the lake today, at an undisclosed location. It's a little rough, but I'll take a silver half dollar any day! I saw someones holes there. I guess they missed this one. Found it before 7am. Go get you some! Click on this link to watch it. https://youtu.be/2ukXNAyfe0s...

    Like Panning For Gold

    Yep, water detecting is just like panning for gold. I went out and hit the lake this morning in my insulated waders and dug this little beauty out of the lake bed. But it took quite a few nails and other misc. trash to find the gold. I say gold because some of these tokens are worth they're...

    1st Hunt Of 2016

    Nothing too spectacular. Ornate brass faucet, brass safety pin and brass tag, (I think it was for a locker at the beach), lipstick, one 52 wheat back, woven wire ring, triple play token, and $1.70 in clad. No silver today. I have been having pretty amazing luck lately, so I thought I better post...

    Last Hunt Of 2015 Yeilds 1 More Silver

    OK, so it was only a 1938S Mercury. But what a great way to finish. I had no idea I had silver till I got home and looked at my finds. Nice surprise. Also got a 1936 S wheat penny, and the ring was made in Japan. My friend got a 1902 Indian head penny. We dug 5 hours in the lake. Going goose...

    Silver Ring, and Tobacco Token

    Here's a great ring I found while using the Fisher Aquanaut 1280X. Barely heard it, with sensitivity at 9, discrimination at 3, volume up to 5. That's really loud when you find shallow targets, but it allows you to hear faint deep signals, like this one gave me. Only works, when there's not alot...

    Key Fobs Are One Of My Favs

    Key fobs and watch fobs, are always a welcomed find. This one is no exception. The AnacondA key fob is absolutely fobulous! It's of course from Anaconda Montana. It's fairly old judging by the keys that were attached to it. My guess is somewhere in the 40's -50's. Made of copper, and maybe...

    Another Gold, 18k or .750

    I can't believe the finds lately, first my first standing liberty quarter. Then my first silver dollar, and now my first .750 or 18K gold find. Hope it doesn't stop! I was just about to call it quits, when I stumbled across this little beauty. I could tell right away it was gold but when I saw...

    Silver Among The Iron

    Click on this link to watch my short video clip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HDCkvgOJzOg Always move the iron out of the way, if you can. Then check the hole again. This 1944 war nickel was hiding under the large chunk of rusty iron. Glad I moved it. You can actually see it as soon as I moved...

    Gold Beach!

    I was fortunate enough to have the GoPro Hero 3 filming while I found this gold ring yesterday. That makes an incredible 4 gold rings off this beach in less than 3 weeks. 2 were eyeball finds and 2 were detected. Can't wait to go back and see what I missed! It's gonna freeze up around here...

    Had to go back for more Gold & Silver, with the V3i

    I just had to go back to my secret spot again! I found 2 gold there and 2 silver the last times I went so back I went with my V3i. There's tons of iron at this location, so I needed a better machine that the last time. Incredibly, I found two more gold rings, one 10K and I have to test the other...

    Silver & Turquoise, One Of My Favorite Digs!

    Water detecting is usually a last resort for me, when the weather gets really cold. Sounds crazy. but it's the only place to go around here in the pan handle of Idaho, during the winter. Not everything is frozen yet but, we had a huge storm the other night and we saw 70+ mph winds. It was crazy...
