    How many class ring have you ever found ?? What is the oldest ?

    I found a large 10k men's class ring a few years ago, and it rang up like a zinc penny. That's the only one I've dug in many years of detecting. Pleasant surprise for me!

    Call me lucky Another walker today same park!!!!!

    Wow, you're really killing it at that park! I've dug only one Walker, at an old rodeo arena a year ago. A few weeks ago I was at a pounded park and looking down in a hole saw the edge of a big silver. When I pulled it out of the hole I was really disappointed - it was the bottom quarter of a...

    Yard Permission Yields Big Silver Haul!

    I did in fact return yesterday. I went to another new permission, but only found a few wheats. I then went to a park and a fairgrounds, but only found newer clad. I returned to the original permission to hunt some more and dug a 1925 Merc next to a sidewalk in front of one of the houses. So...

    Yard Permission Yields Big Silver Haul!

    I didn't find that much clad. 3 dimes (one of them the dreaded 1965 Lol); 2 nickels; and 9 memorial pennies, most from the 60s and 70s (only one zinc). The only quarter was the silver one. The yard had obviously never been hunted before.

    Yard Permission Yields Big Silver Haul!

    Yes, I was thinking the same thing. My first 6 coins found were 4 wheats and two silver dimes. Wish every hunt could go so well!

    Thanks, Hotwire. I just discovered one more wheat penny in my pocket, so 14 wheats instead of 13! LOL

    Yard Permission Yields Big Silver Haul!

    I drove an hour from home this morning and got a nice permission to hunt two adjacent yards. I dug 6 silvers and 13 wheat pennies altogether with F75 - 5 Mercs ('34,'42,'43,'44); 1916 Barber dime; 1958 Washington Quarter. Overall, a very productive day! Thanks for looking!

    The Yard Was Full of Silver

    I drove to a small town 20 minutes from my house where I have hunted recently. The owner of a whole block in the town has let me hunt his property for the past few months, but I had never hunted the yard of his personal residence until two days ago. It turned out to be worth the wait, as I dug 4...

    Huge Silver Spill + Seated Half-Dime - Part II

    I drove 115 miles back to the old plantation home site for a second hunt today after finding 21 silver coins there 3 days ago. I immediately went to the area where I found all of the silver dimes earlier this week, and in a short time I was able to dig another 8 silver dimes. So the grand total...

    Huge Silver Spill!

    I've already posted this on the Today's Finds thread, but thought it might be of interest on the F75 thread. Yesterday I set out for an old plantation site that pre-dates the WBTS. It is about a hundred miles from my house, so I left just after 7:00 AM for the 2 hour drive. I first hunted two...

    Huge Silver Coin Spill!

    Yesterday I set out for an old plantation site that pre-dates the WBTS. It is about a hundred miles from my house, so I left just after 7:00 AM for the 2 hour drive. I first hunted two vacant lots for several hours that once were the site of very old homes in the small town near the...

    Gold, Big Silver and Other Goodies!

    I hunted a site today that is supposed to be the oldest house in a nearby town. The house is a dogtrot (now remodeled and enclosed) that was built in the mid-1800s, and is supposed to be the site of Confederate headquarters during WBTS. I was using an E-Trac with the stock 11" coil. All...

    E-Trac Walks the Lonely Streets, and Goes to a School and Park

    During the past week I worked some sidewalk curb strips, an older school yard, and an old park. I had a couple of surprises on the curb strips when I found a 1903 Barber dime on top of the ground in an eroded area next to an older school, and dug a 1963 English penny. I dug several other...

    E-Trac Hits the Sidewalks

    I worked some sidewalk curb areas this afternoon in an older section of a nearby town. I dug the 40% silver Kennedy half-dollar at 4". It really made the E-Trac warble at a very high pitch, so I knew it was probably over a good target, even though the coin rang-up in an unfamiliar range (at...
