    First time out in a LONG time

    Went to a local county park to one of the older sections...Spent from 11am til 6pm hunting with a friend who is up from North Carolina. I found 1 1944 Merc dime and $3.93 in change. Oldest coins were 1916 Wheat and 1940 and 1941 Nickels. All coins from this area look like garbage, because of the...

    Back to the Big Hill with my friend Tony today...I think our first targets came simultaneously, I called him on my cell and told him I found a 1927 Buffalo Nickel, and he told me he just found a 1943 war nickel. I thought that was kinda weird...lol...I found 3 Silver dimes...1926 and 1927 Mercs...

    The Home Team Brings Home the Gold...14K Gold! :drool:

    Met up with BanditIcey (Eva) and her Husband Brian from Rochester/Buffalo area of NY and we hit some of our local spots around Syracuse. First spot we hit was on a River and used to have a horse track and carnival back in the mid 1800s till the Depression era. Well, it may have been old, but it...

    Saturday hunt...Rosevelt went on a Buffalo Hunt...

    Went out with Kevin to our "home away from home". We failed to bless our coils with the "Holy Morgan", and payed the price. We hunted for hours, only finding clad. I did find 2 Buffalo nickles (1926 and 1937). It was not until the sun started to set that we both found our silvers. Kevin...

    Thursday hunt gets 2 more Silvers...

    Went on a short road trip to a new area for me and Kevin. Hit a wooded section near a creak where an old foundation was found. I came up with the only good target here after about 2 hours of wandering the woods and crossing the creek. I got a 1945 Mercury Dime. We decided to head back to town...

    2 Hunts in the last week

    First hunt did not produce much. I did get the ugliest looking silver dime of my life though. Looks like someone threw it in a fire. 4 wheats were the only other good things from this day. The second day was CLADapolooza!!! Over 5 bucks in clad! Also found my first "V" nickel...a 1912 in...

    Wednesday and Thursday hunts...One more off the list!

    Wednesday we went to a local park on the south side of town that we did not think would produce anything spectacular. We started off in the woods, and found absolutely nothing but trash. I got tired of snagging my coil on small twigs and scrub, so I went back down the hill to the flats near the...

    First hunt of the year scores Big GOLD!

    My Buddy Kevin came back from his work in Alaska and we hit a local park where we have had some luck with the silvers last year. Dug a bunch of nickels, then hit a 9-39 signal that bounced around a lot, but the display said it was 5-6", so I decided to dig just for grins...Well, when I saw gold...

    It was a White Out!

    Got out for about 1 1/2 hours before the snow came down...It was a white out! My Friend K picked me up at noon and we headed for the big hill where we have been finding Silver. We both managed a Merc (mine 1939), and I also dug a cool .925 Jaguar Ring with what may be Emeralds for the eyes. I...

    A Target Rich Environment

    Went to another Syracuse area park Saturday with a bit of history. Quite a few Silvers have been found here, but not so much today. Mostly clad, but I did get a few goodies. Also on Friday my friend K and I hit an old mill site out West of me. It was there that I found the Flat button...

    My Oldest Silver Coin to Date :detecting:

    Went to a park we have been hitting for the last year and a half. This is one of the oldest if not "the" oldest park in the city of Syracuse. First good target of the day was a 1944D Mercury Dime. Next was my oldest silver coin to date, a 1886 Canadian Dime. Finally, just before dark I found the...
