    Lucky Half Cent

    It took over 40 years, but I finally found my first Half Cent yesterday. The site was a circa 1850 one-room schoolhouse field. The 150+years in the ground was not kind to the coin. After getting it home and cleaning it very carefully,I could tell that it was a Classic Head but seeing a date was...

    Last hunt with F75

    The 2 Cent Piece is a great coin to find. Every one that I've found hits at 68 on the VDI scale. Do you remember what number yours hit at ?

    MANTICORE HITS DEEP OLD LEAD SOLDIER

    Good find. Finding 10 inch deep lead is a good sign that the Manticore is doing a good job.

    A couple nickel finds

    The 3 cent nickel is a very hard coin to find. It's still on my bucket list.

    Cut silver (no clue!), buckle and pre-CW Great Seal button

    The cut silver is a very small target, nice find. Might want to give some thought about cleaning the button. Sometimes cleaning makes them better, and sometimes they look worse. It's a nice button. Good hunt.

    2nd Colt Open Top Pocket .22 Cal.

    I hunted a farm field yesterday that was the site of a former 1860's church. Although I only found a couple of Indian Head Cents, the best find of the day was my second Colt Open Top Pocket Model .22 cal. Revolver. The first was found at a schoolhouse field site in April 2022 and had a serial...

    Beans out back at it

    Nice token. I haven't found one like that. Looks like circa 1910-1930

    First hunt in many years, local park, 90 minutes

    Sounds like the bug has bitten again. Keep at it!

    Need some help with this one. I found this within about 20' of Civil War bullets, buttons, a Union US buckle. Can anyone tell me what this may be?

    A chamberstick candle holder. If it was found in the area of Civil War action,I can imagine a soldier huddled around the candle light writing a letter to send back home. Nice find!

    Silver and gold

    That's a very old site. Even though it's been hunted hard, you managed to pull three good finds. Nice hunt.

    For all the guys and ( gals ) who have been detecting for a while ( like me almost 30 yrs ) what haven't you found yet.....

    I have found a Silver Three-Cent but not a Nickel Three-Cent Piece. The nickel content and small size makes them hard to find.

    Anyone know the difference 1265 x vs. 1266 x

    I had both and could not see any difference in depth or number of finds. The 1266X had a "Spider Coil" that may of been slightly lighter.

    Big Silver / Canadian Half Dime / Very Old Printing Plate

    Very nice finds. The 1905 V nickel is noteworthy because of very little wear and is in decent dug condition.

    Dry spell redemption, gold and silver!

    Nice quarter!

    Rain clouds have silver lining

    Finding Standing Liberty Quarters as your first two silver quarters ever is very nice. They just don't show up that often. Nice finds!

    Do I need permission from anyone....

    It looks like a commercial area. If you're somewhat apprehensive about it, hunt it on a Sunday afternoon or evening.

    Good find with the Etrac

    Nice find in the iron. These came tied to a new pair of shoes that Boy Scouts wore. They all have the hole in them.

    Banning of metal detecting

    There are some that do not fill their holes. When you see an area that someone has done this, it is very unsightly. I think that the unfilled hole issue can many times be attributed to squirrels and other critters This is especially true of parks and any area that has a squirrel population.
