    Debasement Opinion and MD Thoughts?

    One reason I truely enjoy MD is finding old coins, with the history and VALUE they once represented, not to mention the value and excitement today! I like to research what happened in the year I found that 1888 Indian head cent at the old park. I think to myself who lost that 1888 cent and how...

    Mystery Metal

    Greetings to One and All! I took today off sick,(cough cough, sneeze, belch). I felt better about 6:30 A.M. and went detecting at the local hunted out park. I dug a light rock that registered in the "nickel" range at about eight inches. It is too light for lead, steel, etc. and doesn't appear...

    A TWO Fer

    Greetings All, After the thunder storms stopped late Sunday morning I couldn't help but to go out for a few hours, sore elbow and all. The sad part is I have a "swingy thingy" and seldom use it? Went to a local old park I hunted many times and silver still exists if you swing slow enough with...

    Finally

    At dawn this morning I was at a old park swinging my ML with the 15" WOT coil, running full open -16 IM, in anticipation of some silver. I also have the X-1 probe installed. The ground is dry as a bone and it's getting hotter as the morning continues. After about three hours, my arm will not...

    Lead

    Got to spend an hour yesterday and added "two" three ring lead bullets to my collection. It's getting too heavy to move around. Don't know why I'm displaying them, as no one I know cares anything about bullets? I'm not interested in relics, fishing sinkers or bullets, only old/silver coins. I'm...

    The King and I

    Found a few goodies. The pictures of the King George doesn't do it justice. [attachment 28939 CollectionII.jpg] [attachment 28940 GeorgeFront.JPG] [attachment 28941 GeorgeBack.JPG]

    A Few Silver

    Well Guys, I was lucky to get a photo down to 120KB. I really dont' know what I'm doing with photos and trying to decrease them. I don't know if this one will make the grade? Have pictures of finds I can not upload? Found silvers, old bullets, etc. Guess I'm challanged... [attachment 28898...

    Silver Where Least Expected

    In 90+ degree heat and humidity I was sweating, drinking gator aid like crazy, and digging in dry concrete at 7+ inches for bottle caps. At this old park and neighborhood I am ever careful of my environment and safety. In an isolated spot of the park with no one around, along comes a guy that...

    Hunting Conditions

    It seemed I was on a roll there for awhile in the old park this winter during a couple of huntable mild weekends. There is no doubt in my mind, as I have proven to myself over and over again, moisture in the ground is key to finding deep coins. I found the pictured (hopefully) coins in about...

    Double First

    Greetings Yall, Finally got out the end of January after a couple of idle months due to inclement weather and other comittments. Boy was I surprised! The weather was unseasonably warm and the ground was very moist from recent rain, so I thought I would go to a local hunted out park for a couple...

    When the "Cherry Picken" Ends.

    I went out to a very old park today I have hammered time and again. This morning I retrieved (5) Mercury dimes, (1) Roosey, (14) wheats and other odds and ends. If there is one key to the Minelab II, it is a slow sweep in hunted out areas. I can't stress that enough, a slow coil sweep with the...

    Stupid IS what Stupid DOES

    I hate to admit it, but I was stumped. I was out detecting about a week ago with a few guys. I didn't do bad, a Barber dime, a Mercury dime, a bracelet, wheat pennies, etc. The dew that morning was very heavy and my feet were soaked wearing tennis shoes. The next day we decided to return to the...

    Bullet Mini Balls

    If a person had a spot to dig up many 2&3 ring mini balls, is it worth the time and effort?

    Mississippi River

    I read an article in the St. Louis Post Dispatch August 2003, when the Mississippi River was about at record low levels. The article stated metal detectorists were finding many old coins. I could not make it then to verify it... NOW, the Mississippi River will be close to record low levels by...
