    It seems to me that I hit the Mother Load Fella's!:yikes:

    This weekend was something else, that is for sure. Got to go out with Rich Alfano on Saturday with the new Explorer SE he bought from R&L Enterprises. He has mentioned already his finds in another post. WTG Rich!!! He didn't seem like he was doing that well but he had gone into the spot I took...

    I half to say, 2 firsts this weekend and plenty of coins made for good hunting!:thumbup:

    Hit a couple spots this weekend which I knew yielded older coins. 2 spots panned out good while the other 2 I knew were tough and yielded very little. Lets start out with the Clad Coinage Totals for the weekend. I recovered 37 Quarters, 72 Dimes, 3 Nickels, and 244 Pennies which brings it to a...

    Weekend Finds!:shrug:

    Got out a few times this Labor Day weekend but the older finds were few and far between. I didn't make it to the spot I wanted to try this weekend but I am for sure going next weekend to try and find some nice Barber Coinage I hope. What I did get were alright finds but the silver sure is...

    Does anyone know what this is?

    I found this item in a Park this weekend and it was within inches of an 1896 Indian Head Cent. It is all metal but not for sure what kind of metal for the design part of it. I think it might be Aluminum or Gold Plated Silver. It says Germany on the back of it. Any info or guesses are greatly...

    A few finds this weekend.

    Got out today and hit a few area's previously pounded before finally meeting Doug from the Minnesota area. It was a tough hunt due to all the iron in the ground but we did get a couple keepers. Rick didn't fare too well but it was fun just fun getting out and detecting for a while since I...

    Yo Alfano! Are you out there?

    I just got home and got the message. Have Rick send that armcup out to you ASAP so your kid doesn't miss any detecting time. I was going to get one just for a back-up but I can also stop in at Treasure Island and get one since Greg has them in stock also. Good Luck and HH.:thumbup:

    What I found for real finds this last weekend.:wave:

    I know you all been waiting for me to post any finds this weekend so here they are. For as little as I did get out, I did pretty well I thought in such a short time. I detected for a bit on Saturday Evening and for about 2 1/2 hrs and got a few keepers. Sunday I went out for about 3-4 hrs and...

    The nicest Barber Dime I've seen come from the ground!:surprised:

    Here is my buddy Dale's find from 2 weekend's ago. He found more than this but this is just a rarity to find. It is an 1897 Barber Dime in AU condition with mint luster still visible. It is the best example of a high grade Barber Dime to be pulled from the ground without question. I was there...

    Weekend Finds:thumbdown:

    Was sure a tough weekend for finds. Saturday and Sunday especially had rain in the forecast and it rained off and on on Sunday for most of the day so I was ducking between rain showers. Got nice out during the last couple of hours on Sunday but didn't help much since I didn't feel like driving...

    Finally found 2nd Seated of the year!

    Found most of the finds posted on Saturday. Today I went out for a little bit but only found a few Wheats. Sure could use some rain around here due to the ground getting a bit hard to dig in areas. What I found this weekend was alright but sure seems to be getting tougher for older coins...

    Looks like we all lost our postings fella's from July 8th up till now!

    So if any of you will please post your finds from at least the last weeks time, it would be very much appreciated. I will be posting my finds from last weekend again soon because you just don't see Silver Dollars found every day. We lost a lot of nice finds that were posted as Guvner has posted...

    Here is my finds from yesterday again.

    Here is what I found at one of my sites on Wednesday. Got a tip from 8-reale that a particular spot of ours was in the process of being dug up. Tried the dug up area only on the sides due to having a good rain the day before so I am not sure what is out in that sticky mud yet. I only found a Toy...

    What I found this Sunday!

    Tried 2 different spots today which consisted of a Park and a School Yard. I didn't have much luck at the Park and only found 4 Wheaties for my efforts. The School Yard is where I had better luck. I found 3 more Silver today. They are 1 1945-d Washington Quarter, 1 1918 Mercury Dime, and 1...

    Saturday's Finds!

    The day was a long one and for some reason it really slowed down on finds as far as Silver is concerned. I met Rick and Tim at the spot that I have been doing so well at and it sure was a tough outing. Rick I believe found a Wheatie and a small coin type object that had a date on it of 1852 and...

    Couple finds from 2 other worked to death areas.

    I went and decided to hit a small town that I have done really well at before and had in the past got quite a bit of Barber and Silver from. First I tried an older balldiamond and was there for about 10 minutes and got a deep 28-30 reading. I dug down and popped out a 1939-d Mercury Dime in...
