    Mexican silver and more

    Everything you have there is fantastic and very old. Don’t stop til you clean that site out.

    St. Regis token

    If it’s aluminum, brush it vigorously with a wire brush and all the details will be visible. It will also be more pleasing to the eye.

    Good for 1 Drink

    That’s a great token. It has everything you need to research where it came from. Depending on what state you’re in or whether the site is in town or in the country, people still shoot guns right off the front porch. It’s rare for me to not find a bullet or cartridge, no matter what was on the site.

    Centuries-old farm finds

    That’s a stopwatch. It only has 60 seconds marked. Nice find

    Can someone date these watch guts

    Without a serial number and maker, you’d need an expert in pocket watches to get a date. Looks old and very basic.

    Any idea's what this is.

    The face is a satyr, a Greek trouble maker. It’s made to be seen from both sides, so probably not a knocker. Maybe a finial type ornament?

    Couple interesting finds

    So many of those old wooden building burned to the ground, leaving nothing but nails behind. Try to locate the exact site of the building because it might have had a dirt floor.

    Neighbor was told a pyramid of revolutionary gold is buried on his property!!!!

    Just about every property in the US has a story about lost or buried treasure. I think it’s a trick that realtors use to help sell property. Every old house has money buried in the walls or somewhere in the yard, according to realtors. There’s a better chance you’ll get hit with lightning or the...

    Spanish Silver Cob

    Not only is the coin awesome, Photo Room made your pic look professionally done.

    First Eagle Button

    Congrats on the button. It’s probably 1850s-1860s since it has the groove on the reverse. If the blob is lightweight, it’s melted aluminum.

    What kind of bullet is this?

    The object he’s talking about is smaller than a penny and made out of lead. Cap bombs were bigger than a penny and not made of lead.

    Letters of a button

    If there is an “&” on there, it may be a railroad related button.

    What kind of bullet is this?

    I think it’s a roofing nail. The lead would spread out and seal once you hit it with a hammer.

    Good looking SLQ

    That’s an S mint mark! Probably worth $100. Good job.

    Some finds from the Rio Grande Valley Oct. 2022

    This was an experiment to see who’s paying attention, and who is gullible. If you’re gullible on social media, you may find yourself going down a dangerous rabbit hole. Everything on my post was true, except for the reindeer. The picture is all the evidence you need to be skeptical. An...

    Some finds from the Rio Grande Valley Oct. 2022

    Had to work in South Texas back in October for a week. Hunted in the evenings. Every time I go to South Texas, the relics come out of the ground completely destroyed. Something very corrosive in the soil. Found a few old Mexican coins that were toasty. 1906 1 Centavo and a large cent from the...

    Trifecta makes cents

    Great job! 45 years of detecting and haven't found one yet.

    Today's been a good day hunting

    There's no written law that says you have to tell the truth in order to post on this forum. Folks buy coins all the time and claim they found them just to make themselves feel better. Some get caught and most don't. That being said, the difference here is: You claim you found a 120+ year old...

    Today's been a good day hunting

    The blowup was undisputed proof that the stones are not rose cut, not the condition of the gold plating.
