Went to one of the older home sites at the "new" freeway interchange area yesterday. Took the V with the 5.75 DD. Spent almost 2 hours there and only found 2 clad quarters, an old (button?), a brass disk, and what look sort of like rocks. The smaller one feels a little heavier than aluminum but looks like aluminum and the larger one weighs 7.5 ounces. It isn't lead, too hard. It seemed like it weighed way too much for it's size so I hung on to it. These were the only things that gave good signals and the rock thing didn't give a signal any bigger than a coin.

Honestly Joe I had high hopes of getting through the trash and picking up an Indian or two.I think the button, if that's what it is, is probably a hundred years old or so. The only real reason I posted the pic is because of the "rock". It had a small signal footprint, was about 4 inches down, looks like steel but I think weighs more than steel of the same size and wasn't rusty. I thought it was weird. My wife thinks it's a meteorite.

Those look like meteorites to me too 
Better then Gold?
Detecting Meteorites, Meteorite Hunting or Meteorite Prospecting relates to searching for the extraterrestrial objects that reach the surface of the earth after falling through the earth's atmosphere. Most meteorites are fragments of asteroids and comets traveling through space.
The smaller group comprises pieces of planets and their natural satellites, which were launched into space by forceful collisions with large asteroids and comets.
These meteorites are highly sought by meteorite hunters not only for their rarity but also for their value: a 10g piece of Mars can bring you $10,000!
