    First silver for 2025 is a chunky ring

    Finds are from three separate hunts, all four rings found on third hunt, must of been ring day. The good one is marked MEXICO 925. Found at a high school sports field, gave a quarter signal on the vdi. I was using the F70 with the stock coil. One of the nickels is a 1940, missed the war...

    Another gold from the soccer field.

    Went back to the soccer field where I had found a 14K bow tie design ring and a very small 925 pendant two weeks ago. Found several zincolns, one clad dime, assorted trash, can slaw, foil, etc. About 30 minutes into the hunt, the F70 gave a 45 vdi signal, 2 or 3 inches down was a 10K Frederick...

    A couple smalls from a soccer field

    Got out yesterday to a neighborhood park where the younger kids play soccer. Found some junk, a bling earring, key, and then the F70 gave a vdi 23 signal which turned out to be a 14k small ring. Bow tie ring, 1.85 grams, $95 melt value. Then found a very small 925 pendant, 1.25 grams, down...

    Worn barber, mangled merc, wheat cent, and more

    I went back to the sports field where i had found the buff nickel a few weeks back. Targets are very sparse throughout the field but in the area where i had found the nickel I found a worn 1902 barber dime, a mangled mercury dime (shot with a firearm is my guess), and a 1942 wheat penny. I was...

    Legend finds its first gold

    Finally broke the gold drought yesterday with the Legend, park mode, G disc, 22 sensitivity, 20 vdi. I was searching a sports field, pendant was down about 3 inches. First gold for me in 2 years with any detector. Found the buffalo nickel a few hunts back, nice clear date, nice detail...

    Treasure is where you find it.

    I took the F70 to a park yesterday, weather was nice, sunny and warm for this time of year. Over a couple of hours I dug $5.04 in clad. Included in that total was my first dollar coin for the year, a presidential dollar. Also got an earring, the post is marked 925, diamond is very shiny...

    A review of 2023

    In 2023 I found several pieces of 925 jewelry, a few were marked Sterling. I am still in a gold drought, no gold for 2022 or 2023, I hope to change that this year. Only one silver coin, ‘47 Rosie, a 1906 V nickel. One Ike dollar, five dollar coins ( 4 sacajawea ) three clad halves. A pair of...

    Silver cross

    Took the Legend to a middle school that i have searched quite a lot in the past. I was using the large stock coil, park mode, G tab, m3 frequency, 22 sensitivity. I found several Jeff nickels that i probably walked over with other detectors. The Legend seems to be deadly on the nickels. I...

    Bling, bling, bling, then silver ring!

    It was a nice fall day so I got out to an elementary school that I hadn’t visited for quite some time. Started the hunt by checking the bark mulch under and around the playground equipment. I was finding a few coins and then started hitting some bling, the cross, butterfly ring and the other...

    Park silver

    Took the Legend to a couple of parks a few days ago. Found a 925 necklace with a locket, the hinged type that you can put a picture in. It gave a nice 44-45-46 signal on the Legend. Also found a double knot ring (bling), and a little over 3 dollars clad which included a canadian quarter and a...

    Slim pickens, but got silver ring

    I hunted a small park with the At Pro, good targets were far and few between. I did manage a 925 ring which gave a great tone and registered a 86-87 on the At. Thought I was digging a quarter based on those numbers, but down about 2 inches was this ring instead. Marked 925 PSA, tried to...

    What would you have done?

    A while back, I was searching a middle school and while doing a grid in a grassy area next to a basketball court I moved a hooded jacket with my foot to get it out of my way. The jacket was soaked from the sprinkler and it felt heavy. I picked it up and checked the pockets. There was a wallet...

    First silver coin of the year and a little more.

    Got a ‘47 Rosie from a house lot where the house is going to be torn down. Snuggled the AtPro with the 11” coil up close to a wrought iron fence and got a good signal. Down about 5” in the leaf mold, first silver coin of the year. Was using the AtPro because it was raining. The other finds...

BiCenntenial half, v nickel, padlock charm and tungsten ring were found at a soccer...

    Dollar coin times two today

    It was a nice sunny day so I got out for a water hunt, hoping to find some jewelry and/or old coins. I found neither, but did find two dollar coins. First stop was at the river, I got a mid to upper nineties vdi on the At Pro. Missed it on the first scoop which caused the silt to obscure my...

    A bonus to go with the clad

    Just more clad coins today and a couple junker rings. Started out with the F70, but noticed some dark rain clouds moving in quick, so I switched it out for the AT PRO for the waterproofness. Found the ten dollar bill while searching along a fence line at a little league ballpark. So, does...

    Nothing but clad but i still had fun

    I went metal detecting to a high school that has been very good for large amounts of clad in the past. This school has also given me 3 gold rings and a few silver rings. Usually it is only clad. I don’t hunt it too often so the clad has time to accumulate. In most areas, the grass is thick...

    First silver Washington in quite some time

    The other day I noticed that a house was being torn down and the lot was getting scraped. There was still equipment on the lot and part of the house was still standing. I told myself that I needed to keep an eye on it and search it when I could. I didn’t get back as soon as I should and some...
