    AT Pro finds late 1700s King Louis XVI copper

    With an open invitation, I recently returned to the 2-acre property where I found an 1861 half dime last week (see here: http://www.findmall.com/read.php?79,1826269). This time I worked the 2nd half of the backyard and had a dime spill--merc, silver Rosie, modern Rosie--to show for it. Like the...

    AT Pro finds a half dime

    Got out Friday for a few hours to a family friend's property on 2 acres.The property is very close to one of the oldest houses (1727) in my town, so I knew it must have been part of that original farm. I spent the entire time in one part of the backyard and was becoming increasingly discouraged...

    Last wknd's cellar hole hunt with AT Pro

    Last wknd, my hunting partner and I took an overnighter to MA to visit family and hunt for cellar holes that we were tipped off to. My hunting partner found some really great buttons and other period relics. I wanted to post my take here. We think the site is mid-to-late 1800's and so far our...

    NJ beach hunt--day 1

    Got out for an early morning beach hunt while on vacation in Ocean City, NJ. I dug anything 40+ and decided to concentrate on 2 long paths that lead to the beach--that's where I found most of the items below--figuring that beachgoers may have dropped stuff while carrying their beach gear. A...

    Good deed & a token spill

    This past wknd I went to a bbq in Central NJ. It's an annual event, but it's the first time I brought my detector, as the hosts have an expansive yard I had always wanted to search. The owner told me ahead of time that she had lost a very special pendant given to her by her grandchildren. She...

    Sunday's finds--back to 7-acre site

    Returned to a 7-acre property this Sunday for the 3rd time. Focused on the front lawn this time, especially the side that abuts some RR tracks. That area was very junky and even the for-sure penny signals were turning out to be junk (non-iron, but still junk). Anyway, managed a few notables...

    Long hunt; short recap with pics

    My hunting partner (who swings a Garrett ACE 350) and I made our 2nd visit to 7 acres of permissioned private property near Mt. Holly, NJ. We arrived at 7 and left at 4:30, only breaking for lightening and lunch. My partner had the find of the day, which happened on virtually his last dig, an...

    Family trip to Upstate NY yields my 1st Large Cent

    Traveled 6 hrs. from Southern NJ to Upstate NY (Lake Ontario area) this weekend for a trip to visit my wife's relatives. They live on 46 acres, much of which are corn stalks. Of course I wanted to get out and explore desperately, but I didn't want my mding to override the family time. Finally...

    Silver amongst the junk

    Hit my brother's backyard on 7/14 for a quick hunt. Lots of junk back there, so much so that I think it used to be a dump. Anyway, managed to score a 1942-D merc that was only 1-2 inches down an had a VDI of 81-82. The crushed metal cup in the pic is a shot cup from an old whiskey bottle that...

    NJ beach hunt 7-6-12

    While visiting my parents, who live only a block from the beach, I set out for an early morning beach hunt. It was 5 a.m., there was no one around, the sun was rising, and it was very peaceful. I decided to hunt only the dry sand with my AT Pro b/c my time was limited and I didn't want to have...

    3 Little Indians and Some Friends

    Got out for an all-day hunt on Friday, 6/29, to 7 acres of private property (with kind permission) in Southern NJ. Too big of a site to cover in 1 day, so I'll be back. Below are some of the better finds, which include 3 indians (1903, 1905, 1907), a flat button, a toasted copper coin...
