    Some silver, gold and nickels

    Last week decided to hit the lake again. Found 4 wheats and a war nickel in the same areas I’ve been hitting. Today was a bit windy but hit a country church and got a wheat and that was it. Headed to a park in my dads hometown that used to be the grade school. We’ve found hundreds of coins out...

    Arrow head, civil war and 2 cent piece!

    Well today was a grand day.... for my dad! We headed out to a permission he got for us about 20 minutes away. A field where a house from 1873 stood. Most likely a much older house before that as well. Started off real slow with a wheat and some clad by the driveway or where it used to be. I hear...

    Another great day out at the lake

    Headed out to the lake again today since it will be raining the next week. Decided to hit an area between 2 trees and a grand stand. Hard to beep here as people are always around. But 48 degrees and a wind kept them home. Started off with a really nice Buffalo nickel 1929 and about 10 feet away...

    1940’s Lake always full of surprises.

    College classes canceled and work taken care of off I headed to the lake here in town where I’ve been a few hundred times. Started on the big hill that before last year was layered with trash. Worked an area I have done a few times and found some zinc pennies and a bunch of tabs looking for...

    1st time out in 2021 success!

    Been itching to get out lately as the last week and a half have been in the 40’s and 50’s and starting to hit 60’s here in illinois. Went to a park I hit once last year and first target of the year was a chunk of aluminum. Second target and first coin of the year is an 1889 Indian head cent...

    Finally got back out today and got that silver!

    Haven't picked up my Nox since early June due to the Illinois summer. Rained the last week off and on and finally the ground is cement. Went to a park I have found a few wheats, roosie and a buffalo at this year and decided to work a spot I haven't hit too hard. Had a signal that was a pull tab...

    Some more beautiful nickels

    Dad and I went to another local park which has been hammered to death like every other place we go. He went on one side of the park and I took the other half. I meet up with him and he pulls these out! About 3 feet apart from them. An 1868 shield nickel and a 1903 V nickel. Then today we hit a...

    BEAUTIFUL Buffalo Nickel!

    Went to the new park I have been hammering. Dad got a wheat penny right off the bat and I walked around for a while and under this tree I dug 3 Jeffersons and then I got a real nice smooth deep 12-13. Popped the plug. Still down there. About 7 inches deep I see a red nickel come popping out. I...

    Hit another new school yard today. Fill dirt everywhere. Found a few untouched spots and got a real nice 24-25 and I was surprised to see this at the bottom of my hole. My 7th ring already this year. Other than this about $5 in clad and 2 wheats.

    More sterling and some wheats

    Went back to a 1870’s farmhouse dad and I have hit before. Not much going on the first hour. Dad got a 1937 wheat. Then in the back yard I get a deep 30 signal. Pop the plug and about 5 inches down a huge silver thing comes rolling out. Another sterling ring with a large S on it. Cool! Minutes...

    Gold, silver, sterling, old wheats and Indians!

    Have had a pretty good last 2 days. Stopped by an old school that has been hunted to death. Found 4 wheat pennies and dad found an Indian about 10 1/2 inches down or so. Couldn’t believe when a coin came out of the hole. Went to a new 1870’s permission I got yesterday today and it started off...

    Deep silvers and wheats

    Have about 40 hours with the nox 800 now and all I can say is wow. My dad was kind of skeptical at first about it. Until I went out to the lake and came home with 3 silvers out of an area that has been hunted for 40 years. All were over 7 inches deep. One Roosevelt had 3 nails in the hole. Now...

Dad and I the night before found a new house in a field we have permission to. Long story short I fired up my Equinox and dad and I headed out. We walked around for about 1 hour...
