    Lost the top of my Garrett carrot-(Hint-it is black not orange)

    I had a senior moment a while back & the top of my pinpoiter dropped and I didn't notice till I went to install the battery. Long story short I was looking for an orange cap-not seeing one I backed up my vehicle to see under better-crunch. Ok there it is-and it was just behind a wheel so I...

    Magicians coin? Counterfeit?? And 2 small silver yada yada

    Nice day after the showers stopped in Portland Oregon. Have not had anything brag worthy in a while. Today it was more odd than brag. Large doggie park went for the long forgotten moist soil. Joy oh joy softer diggings! This was one of my 1st finds & a puzzler. A large English penny one...

    Tiffany & Co.....My 1st piece.

    The Angel on my shoulder has been working overtime. And-Thanks!! Just that I've been doing very well lately. And I would have been very happy with my small change and buffalo nickel. Love finding old nickels of any sort. But seeing the quality of this piece made me think it was special. Got...

    Vintage religious ring-Jesux Pi Passio!

    Nice day not much but this old ring. Not related to the film - a sect that dates back to the 16th century. Sized before & obviously not gold-nor marked. But a nice devotional piece for my collection.

    It is official....I have now seen everything....NOT safe for Work Mkay!

    I mean what are the odds... I told my doggie to watch for an incoming lightning bolt-because I have now seen everything-or as much as I want. Funny thing is it is actually a ancient Roman phallic symbol & a fairly exact copy-in lead. Also found a silver dime-yay!

    Watch this video-Works like magic for me!!

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcChyUlgPIs I should register & make a thank you comment-but that's not going to happen. But seriously I love the settings he uses. I had to make a minor modification-I disc'd the upper left corner out in a slim crescent. That helps minimize the iron falsing in...

    I joined the GOLD COIN CLUB today!

    Wow & then some... I'm about 6 years in on this hobby. And I have done very well no complaints at all. But we all have that goal-dream-bucket list find. And for most of us that is a Gold coin. I live in the Pacific Northwest and older coins-heck even silver-are very rare finds. And today I...

    F5 Tornado peels a layer off the "Onion"

    Ok enough mumbo jumbo-Todays find-the jewelry spill was a few days ago but just uploaded the pic. I have a park I now call "The Onion". It has layers like an Ogre or onion that is. 4 years in and having a bit of a dry spell. Still it is close by & I know there is more in the iron chatter that...

    Jewlery spill...almost all HGE....But can you spot the one real gold piece?

    A sideline purse spill I'd wager-exciting find but alas almost all of it is Avon. The jade stone is real but it is a plated setting. I found a 6 ring spill once-also a sideline purse spill was my guess. That had one small silver ring the rest were all junk. So it does happen-just wish they had a...

    I'd like an opinion on the best "Greek Series" coin shooter in bad soil / iron

    Hope I'm posting in the right place. I recently got a NEL tornado for my F5. The machine was one I sold my brother & I've got another "go to" unit so I may sell it. But this coil also fits a lot of other detectors in the Greek series & IIRC the F series. If I were to purchase a unit that was...

    Really deep Pipe holes at my favorite beepzone-Bomb shelter or well?

    The thing is there are 2 of them I'm fairly certain. I found one over 4 years ago & looking for it today found its twin. Spaced about 4 feet apart & both capped with a flat plate of sheet metal. The pipe I looked down today was iron and very long with no visible joint as far as I can see. It...

    Deep spoon-stainless marked USA. Had a suprise when cleaned...

    I thought it was a nice Memorial Weekend find a USA issue spoon-probably military right?. I saw what looked like marring on the backside but in the pouch till I got home. Fairly deep-about 7" with a few nails in the hole. AT pro of course-king of the nail piles in my book. A bit of a surprise...

    Nice old buckle-And a oddly named cap gun...

    I had to laugh when I saw the name on it-ahh for simpler times. Not only are toy guns a no no just the name of it would get you suspended I'd wager.

    Super long shot-But could this be copper culture?

    I'm sad to say I do not remember where I found this. After seeing some other people copper culture items I got curious about this. It does have damage-twisted & probably broken. Also bubbles from heat-not what I'd expect to see unless it was tossed in a fire?. But it is laminated at least from...

    I need the answer to what these are-may be the key to a puzzle.

    Howdy! I have had a local spot produce an amazing variety of goodies. It is an iron rich area so hunting is not easy but for example-I have pulled about 100 pieces of cutlery, knife forks spoon variety from this spot. None have been silver. Also many artifacts, rings and military garb items...

    Pulled a nice "first" for me...1932 Grant HS Class ring!

    I have done very well on rings-not gonna complain at all. But like many hunters certain targets just seemed elusive. I'm a dirt digger for the most part so gold rings are fairly rare. But I have never dug a class ring of any variety. And this is a real nice one-with a historic tie to my area...

    CZ6 has me impressed....with results

    Still not over the love for deep/bent nails...And the 8" coil is parked because the 5" just makes it easier to understand what my new to me machine is telling me. But what it does very well for me is find smaller targets at impressive depths. Today I worked a very iron infested park-lots of...

    Any idea on this pin?. PS-Not Reddy Killowatt

    I thought it was an old PGE promo pin but I'm coming up blank... Anyone? Thanks!

    By far-My deepest (5") gold ring-and it is TINY!

    Frankly most of the rings I find-gold or otherwise are not very deep. I dirt fish in the Portland Oregon area & we have some really tough soil conditions. The park this came from I have personally declared hunted out a few times over. Luckily it is nearby & I keep giving it a try. This week I...

    Heart shaped horshoe-Whatzits function??

    Never found another like it & only a few popped up on my searches... My wife likes it as a romantic relic. I like it as its old & crusty...But what was the purpose of the closed loop if any?
