    More goodies from the bulldozed house lot

    Managed to get out Saturday afternoon with my buddy Jay again to the bulldozed house lot. Things started off pretty slow. Jay hunted with the 8x11 coil and I stuck with the 5x8 coil. We started off where Jay got his shoebuckle and Ron got his colonial the previous trip there. I slowly worked...

    New spot keeps producing - nickel trifecta, colonial artifacts, silver and gold!

    The Saturday before last I managed to get out to the pounded park for a couple of hours. I hit this trashy area along a sidewalk. Others have pounded this section to death, but not good enough. My first good target was the skeleton key. It was a very loud signal, ringing up high 80's and...

    Not a bad park hunt

    Started off the day with an emergency service call about 50 miles away from home. Left the house at noon, finished the job by 2 and was at the pounded park by 3. I decided to go back to the section I hit a couple of days ago to see if I could get a few more oldies from the old dirt. Within...

    Cut silver???

    Well the temps reached into the 60's today and I couldn't pass up this great hunting weather. I got off work at 4:30 and headed over to the pounded park. Armed with the 5x8 coil and fresh batteries, I decided to work this trashy hillside that I've hit before. I came across this small patch of...

    This just keeps getting better and better! :surprised:

    Curiosity got the best of me tonight, so I decided to pull all the coppers that I dug on Saturday out of the olive oil to see if I could get some ID's. To my amazement, I was able to get dates off of 3 out of the 4 coppers. The 3 that are identified are all William III half pennys and they are...

    ATPro nails a deep colonial copper spill!!!!

    Man oh man, this one goes down in the history books! Let me start off by saying that I hope everyone had a good Christmas holiday. We have been experiencing some record high temps in New England. I managed to get out on Saturday with my buddies Jay and Big D. We met up at 11am at an old...

    When you are in a slump, sometimes you gotta change up your game

    Lately I have been in a silver slump. Pounded park is starting to get harder and harder to pull silver on a consistent basis. I had about an hour of daylight left today and I was itching to get some silver. I decided to head over to the park down the road that I've found silver at in the past...

    Hunted a silversmiths farm today and the 5x8 got tiny silver!

    Got out of work at 4:30 today and picked up my roommate Jay and we headed over to the farm. This farm was owned by a silversmith family back in the late 1700's to the early 1900's. All era's of coins have been found here as well as a few pounds of scrap silver. We originally wanted to hit an...

    4hr hunt today yields a little bit of everything

    I was supposed to get out hunting yesterday, but I was way too tired from the 60+ hour work week, so I took Saturday off to relax. Today I found myself itching to get out to the park. I called Ron on my way there to see if he had the green light to hunt today. Unfortunately he couldn't make...

    Who needs a detector when you got your eyeballs!

    The gold has been elusive for me this year. Usually I get 1 or 2 gold items digging in the old parks, but this year hasn't produced any. Last night I treated myself to a night at our local casino for my monthly deposit... While I was sitting at a slot machine, I noticed a golden object on the...

    Last weekend digs

    Been awhile since I posted, been going thru a bit of a dry spell. Managed to get out last Saturday for a few hours with my buddy Ron at the park. Ron said that the goal for the day was either an Injun or silver dime each. He wasn't setting the bar too high, but neither of us reached that...

    Had an odd issue with the AT Pro today

    I arrived at my local park, geared up, turned the machine on and the coil wouldn't register any metal targets. The machine was quiet as could be. I took off the 5x8 coil and connected the 8x11 coil. Fired the machine up and again, nothing. After a few curse words, I popped out the battery...

    Great mix of old coins on Sunday at the pounded park!

    Greetings all, managed to get out to pounded park today with my buddy Ron. We started off the day rather slow. Ron and I hit 2 different sections in the park. I wasn't really finding anything today, even the clad was elusive. Ron was first on board today with a nice 1936 Buffalo in the 2nd...

    Independence Day = nickel trifecta and a pocket spill!

    Man oh man, what a great hunt today! I was sitting around the house all day watching detecting vids on Youtube. I was having a lazy day and usually check out some vids to get the blood pumping and motivation going. Well it worked! I arrived at pounded park at 3:30 and today's goal was to find a...

    More goodies with the 5x8 coil!

    Managed to get out to the pounded park today with my buddy Ron. I met up with Ron around 3pm, hopped in his car and did a quick survey thru the park. While we were driving around, he set todays goal for 1 silver and 1 Indian for each of us. Seemed legit to me and a goal within reach. We...

    It finally happened, a silver quarter with the 5x8!!!

    I'm still in shock over the whole thing. Step back in time about 2 years when I first bought the 5x8 coil. From day one, I thought it was killer sensitive on small targets, but lacked the depth I was looking for. I never really used it and it collected dust up until a month ago. I was...

    13 hours at the pounded park

    Well, I managed to get out at the pounded park yesterday. Hunted from 6am until dark with a couple breaks in-between. Not much oldies to speak of for the day. Within the first 15 minutes I had a child's sterling ring. Went a few hours with just a few wheats and relics and managed to find the...

    Cut spanish silver????

    It sure has been awhile since my last post. As usual, busy with work. I've been in a bit of a slump lately at pounded park. All I've been getting lately are Wheaties, Injuns, Buffs and V-Nicks. It just seems like the producing areas are not producing like they used to. My buddy Ron found a...
