    Yep, went to 3 garage sales this morning.

My best Garage sale finds were a 10K gold bracelet, a set of 925 sterling heart shaped ear rings and a 925 sterling flying eagle drop. I paid a quarter apiece for them. Love those...

    :usaflag: Treasure Hunting (A brain teaser)

    :wacko: OK I use Tesoro Detectors and I did not find a forum for detecting without a metal detector, so I will post here. I have a new detector that promises to find more valuable finds than a metal detector. It lets me locate precious gems and diamonds that have been lost. I already know that...

    :usaflag: Ring Help Needed

    :confused: I picked this up in a garage sale and thought it just costume jewelry. After looking at it with a loop, I discovered that the stone was cut and set in place instead of being glued in. It appears to be brushed stainless with a light green colored stone. There is not a scratch on it and...

    :usaflag: A new puzzle, need help

    :detecting:My wife and I went to a tot-lot this morning and she beat me like a drum. We found the usual junk, a few clad coins and etc., but then she found a dollar coin. It was one of the new gold color ones. In the meantime I found two Rocks that sounded like coins below the wood chips and...

    :usaflag:Junk dig continued

    :detecting: Well I have been showing all the rusted nails, wire and etc. that I have been digging in my back yard. My house is about 35 years old, but there must have been something here before. Now I am looking a little deeper and still digging a lot of junk, but today I found a couple of more...

    :usaflag: I must be nuts!!!!!

    :crazy: I got this crazy idea that there must be gold near this certain water valve, the problem is there is also a lot of other things there also. Well I forced my two friends (Comprade and Tinytec) to go help me clean this place out. This is the second time we have worked together (I don't...

    :usaflag: A quickie at a volleyball court with the Vaquero

    :detecting: This and about 5 times as much foil, hair pins, pull tabs and etc. The large ear ring and the drop is silver I think, but neither is marked. The tot ring is just aluminum. 2 pennies, 2 dimes and a Ford Mustang Hot wheels. Bill in Texas :tesoro:

    :usaflag: Just playing around.

    :detecting: One of my step-daughters lives in a house that I would guess was built before 1950. Well we went for a visit and I took Ole cowboy (Vaquero) with me. I hunted there a little about 2 months ago and today about 1 1/2 hours. Of course I dug pull-tabs, iron, foil, nails and etc. which I...

    :usaflag: Hot Tot Lot

    :detecting: I was across town today for a little business and stopped at a tot lot (that I had not been to before) on the way home to detect a bit. Well when I turned on the Vaquero I was in for a surprise. It gave me a pulsating tone and I had to turn the Ground balance all the way negative to...

    :detecting: Well I had a little time and went to a tot lot in a city park right in town. After looking the tot lot over and finding it very clean (only about 6 or 7 Targets, all foil except 2). I think that the the little dog is silver (it is a lot nicer than it looks in the picture) and the...

    New (used detector) I'll call him Piasano Ojo

    :detecting: Its a Tesoro Compadre with a 5 3/4 inch coil. I Have only played with him about 5 minutes and already have fallen in love with him. He is light, fast, looks around trash well, and has surprising depth. I have named him Paisano Ojo. Tabdog I am a believer. Bill in Texas :tesoro:

    Tot Lot gives up great prize?

    :detecting: Wow I'm rich. Not in wealth you know, but just enjoying life. I don't show any gold that I get, but none found today anyway. I don't know the little round brass thing is (third item from the left on bottom row. It is very thin with the opposite side relieved and has writing on that...

    Digging Junk

    :detecting: I totally believe in digging junk when I think I have a good location, but sometimes it is overwhelming. I found a spot that I am pretty sure there is good targets in (I already found one), but it is full of junk. This area is only about 10 square feet. There is so much junk in this...

    Metal Detecting Markers

    :detecting: I am 72 years old and have bad hips. I have trouble getting up and down a lot. To solve this problem, I carry a light weight padded garden stool (it has Wheels) to the area where I am metal detecting. As I metal detect I mark several targets, then I carry the detector and stool to...

    Tesoro Inca Again

    :detecting: Well I had buried 2 pennies in my front yard about 13 years ago about 7 inches deep. One flat and one on edge. I did not hunt for 5 or 6 years and then started again. I tried to find the coins with my old bounty hunter, but could not. About 2 months ago I got a Silver Umax, a...
