    Kentucky detecting clubs

    I have seen some references to the Kentucky artifact recovery and preservation Society in Frankfort, but I don’t know if they still exist. There may also be clubs in Louisville and Lexington.

    Another trip out with the Deus 2

    Always interesting when the coins cluster in age. Was this site only used circa ‘40s to ‘50s? A two silver day is always good! Have you hunted this site previously with a different detector?

    Hope you can find the top of the match holder!

    First day out with the Deus 2

    I know the feeling! What program were you using to start with?

    First day out with the Deus 2

    Yes. Hopefully your headphones and/or puck are upgraded to the same version along with the controller. Otherwise, you will have problems.

    Past weekend coppers!

    As far as farms are concerned, you never know until you ask. The ground is being turned every year. So as long as you don’t leave holes, and don’t dig while there are crops in the ground, you can’t harm the field, and might actually help the equipment if you remove some metal obstructions. If...

    Coral or sponge?

    First off, are you sure it is quartz and not calcite or any other carbonate mineral? Hardness and effervescing with weak acid are a couple ways of discerning if you’re not sure. The Mississippi River has a large drainage footprint. So it could’ve come from a ways away. If it is a silicate...

    Had a pretty good day

    That would be fantastic if you could!

    My new Deus is coming today

    Congrats! I have the nine and the 11 x 13. I’ve been using the 11 x 13 almost exclusively. With the Tekkna program it even does pretty well in dense iron. You have a number of different sound options, so pick the one you like. Working around dense brush, I have managed to knock the remote off...

    Nice old coppers! Is that some sort of bird tag?

    Had a pretty good day

    Silver from the era of the house, but buttons suggesting something even older…. Can you identify the shank style of the buttons? That might help with the earlier use date.

    Need more cleaning on these Indian head cents

    You’re welcome! It’s just a screenshot from a free website.

    Need more cleaning on these Indian head cents

    I can’t make out enough detail to tell, but here is an explanation of the differences from usacoinbook.com.

    White death/Whole song update

    I plan to!

    White death/Whole song update

    Oh, well that casts things in a different light. That might be an interesting thing to enter into my clubs “other” category for find of the month contest..

    White death/Whole song update

    Thank you! I think I have found more IHPs at this site the last few months than I have found in all previous years metal detecting!

    White death/Whole song update

    Thanks! I am actually thinking the pipe may be some sort of water or air connection. The “bowl“ has what appears to be a stainless mesh screen domed back towards the “stem”. The stem itself is actually two pieces threaded together. Based on the seam, it might actually be three pieces but I...

    White death/Whole song update

    I was able to make a couple short afternoon hunts at a site where I found an Indian head penny at the end of the day right before a big snowstorm. The next time I made it out, I found 11 Indian head pennies with seven in one hole all in the same small area. I documented those trips in two...

    More small change and a little bling.

    Congratulations on the trime! They are still on my bucket list.

    Couple nice finds yesterday..

    Silver is silver! You must’ve dug a lot of holes to get 60 quarters. Were you ignoring smaller denominations?
