    Compact?

    Thought this might be some sort of makeup compact at first. But it has some sort of military insignia on it...no other markings. [attachment 272431 DSCN2743800x477.jpg] Inside the lid, there's a smaller foil-lined cavity of some sort. Found this inside an old house...don't think it's...

    Great Independence Weekend

    Received permission to hunt a late-19th century home this week...spent a couple of hours the last four mornings...had a great time! [attachment 269684 Thehouse.jpg] Day 1 hunt gave up a 1917 buffalo nickel and a beautiful 1919-D merc. Popped a 3-ringer out of the ground and a half-dozen...

    What's in a yard?

    Last June, we moved into this house in Shreveport built in 1933...pretty large yard...around an acre or so. Been putzin' around the yard ever since, trying to clean it out. Also using the yard to learn the ETRAC a little better. Started off cherry-picking the coins...an hour here and an hour...

    Ace Pilot

    Got out for a couple of hours this morning to a 1910's house. Found this "Ace Pilot" brass/copper thing...looks like it may have been a novelty buckle or something? Pulled the sterling wings out a few feet away...still has the pin, and the clasp even closes. Then dug up the God and Family...

    Found a bottle cap...

    ...still had the bottle attached! Found in a wooded area that had a house there in the 1930s. I know nothing about bottles...any experts out there? Probably a 1980s schnapps bottle! HH

    Navy House - circa 1702

    Just got permission to search this property...if I was a bettin' man, I'd say this is one of the oldest continually occupied house in the DoD inventory. Unfortunately, I'm restricted to the areas marked as zones 1 and 2 in the photo. And I'm running out of time. We graduate on June 11th, and...

    Civil War Button?

    Found this in Newport, RI this morning...it's 5/8" in diameter...seems like a cuff button. The reverse says, "Horstmann Bros. & Co. Phil." This website says it may be from 1859-1863...http://pw1.netcom.com/~jimyce/bm.html#H ... Anybody think it's authentic? Thanks! BK

    A new addict?

    Borrowed my Dad's F-5 last weekend, and I talked a war college buddy of mine into trying out MD...he'd never done it before but was curious. So I set the disc to nil and handed him the F5 and pointed him to an old tree in the park. Figured he'd go through and clean out all the trash, then I'd...

    Sutler's Token

    How common are these things to dig? I pulled this one out of the ground 20+ years ago in WI...back when I was in middle school and had hair. No matter, I'd rather have the token anyway... At the time, I sent a Polaroid to the editor at Treasure Found, and they sent me a letter back stating it...
