    Old railroad lock ?

    Found this old railroad lock before the Big Freeze here in Pa. I can’t find any old lock photos that match it. I found a lot of Union/ Pacific locks but none with just Union line on them. Any old railroad lock experts out there that can help identify it and is it worth anything in this condition...

    Old fort site gives up another treasure !

    It’s been awhile since I have found something worthy to post. A few toasted coppers from time to time but I pulled this last week. 1768 Globes and Pillars 2 Reale. Just when you think it’s hunted out ☹️ It sure gives you new hope and makes you want to get back out there again… Hope everyone...

    Copying error ?

    Has any of you CTX users ever gotten this error when downloading hunts ? It has happened to me a lot and I can’t figure out what the problem is. I have scanned the forum but haven’t seen this anywhere so hopefully someone who has run into this problem with Xchange 2 can help. The hunts gave been...

    A few previous finds near the old fort…

    Thought I would post a few of my better finds from the fort and some of the surrounding fields just this past winter and spring before the fields were planted. I retired back in 2020 and my wife’s retirement present to me was an upgrade from my Minelab Explorer II to the CTX 3030 that we...

    Colonial artifact ?

    Found this artifact where a French and Indian War fort sat in the 1750’s. I thought it was an arrowhead at first but obviously not after I cleaned it up. Any ideas on what it could be. Maybe some sort of bridal rosette was my thinking but how do you tell how old it is ?

    Washington Hatchet ?

    Found this last week and as of yet gotten no guesses on it. It's small measuring 1"3/4 x 1". May have had a wooden handle on it also. Found in a neighborhood that dates back to mid 1700's so it's hard to date it. Found it in two pieces. Just thought it was an interesting piece remembering the...

    Washington Hatchet ?

    Found this today and have never seen one before. I believe it may have had a wooden handle but not sure. Possibly a toy but I found it in a very old neighborhood. It measures 1"3/4 x 1". Our town dates back to 1767 so no clue how to date it. All I could think of was the old George Washington...

    Spanish half reale

    Got out for the first time this year and found another piece of Spanish silver. Found it in a cornfield along the Juniata River where the original indian trail went through. Registered as penny on my Explorer II. Keep on diggin...

    My Favorite Find

    I found this little Beauty last year in a practice field for baseball. I have maps of the area that go back to 1873 and there was nothing there at the time but we decided to detect the field any way. Sure am glad that we did. Between four of us we got about one dozen large cent, four Spanish...

    My oldest find

    I've been hunting a lot of fields along the Juniata River the past few years and have come away with some good finds. My relic that I posted didn't turn out so good so I thought I would post my oldest find to gain back a little self respect. The 5 on the date is upside down and I was wondering...

    Relic found near a 1750's Fort site ???

    Posted this on the Relic site but since I'm usually reading the Minelab forum I thought maybe one of you would probably have at least a good guess. I found this near the site where a Fort from the 1750's stood. It measures 1 1/2" inches x 1" inch. It has teeth on the back which makes me think...

    Relic found near 1750's Fort site ???

    Found this near the site where a Fort from the 1750's stood. I'm not sure if this dates back to the colonial era but I have found buttons, musket balls and a few coins dating back that far. It has teeth on the back which makes me think that it was maybe attached to a belt or something but the...
