    2023 Finds - Wishing You all the Best for 2024

    Nice finds!... 16 silvers from your second year is great. That shows you're hitting the right spots. The flat buttons are a great indication that you're onto some very old sites that may have early silver. Good luck in 2024.

    I Have A Question

    Many walking trails especially the older ones,have trees and bushes close to the trail itself. If that is the case,one of the smaller or mid size coils for your brand of detector would be better than a stock or larger size coil. The oldest park in my area dates to the 1870's and has a well worn...

    Need help to ID this coil

    I "tried" to ordered a Nel Sharpshooter coil for the Fisher F75 in November from the Nel Company website. The site accepted my order but the status for completion of the order is in limbo.

    Some finds I recently cleaned

    From a badly crusted Indian Head to what is shown is quite a feat. How was it cleaned?

    Need help to ID this coil

    It looks like it has the same connection pattern as an F75 coil.

    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.
